Thank you so much for the names for this photo - we've had this photo for years but my grandad couldn't remember where he was. He's Pte Peter Pocock, front row, 4th from left.
Thank you!

Ryan Price
Sorry if it's been said many times, but Ryan Price is the famous Racehorse trainer. My father, Albert Charles Green, I believe was in his unit.

Sorry, that should have been Capt. Marshall John Adam Leaphard.

Hi Nick
Thanks for Fixing up the picture. When I scanned the photo I wasn't aware that it had been Flipped or Mirrored.
That must have happened later on when I cropped the picture.
My dad would remember Jim Petrie. My dad is turning 92 this year and lives in Adelaide, South Australia.
I will email him and let him know about Jim.
Blessings
Peter H

Roy Suzuki & Jim Petrie
Hi Peter,
A great collection of photos of your father.
On Sunday 12 April 2015, I attended the CVA's Annual Parade & Service held at the Royal Hospital Chelsea and I had a good chat with No.6 Commando Veteran, Jim Petrie. By some strange coincidence, Jim was telling me about his best mate - Roy 'Zoot' Suzuki...
Jim told me that he & Roy were on the PIAT Gun team together.
May I point out that this particular photo has been uploaded back to front - the cap badge is always worn over the left eye and the excess cloth is pulled down over the right ear.
Rgds,
Nick
