Ranks and link added. Jack Bakker also adds "It is Sgt R.B. Visser. The R stand for Rokus, his first name. As far as I know the photo was taken in Eastbourne and I think in 1945. He was a Lt then. He later went to the former Dutch East Indies to become a member of the Dutch Special Force Regiment there. After Indonesia got its independence he became the trainer and first commander of the Indonesian Commandos and Paras."

Rene Navrault
Can someone tell me how and when he came to England? I would like to hear from anyone with information about the French commandos at Eastbourne. Thank you.
