No.9 Commando 2 Troop, Saloniki, 1944
This photo, annotated "Saloniki, 1944, Good Old 2 Troop" from the collection of Norman Smethurst No.9 Cdo. and courtesy of Pauline Smethurst replaces a poorer quality identical image we previously had from the collection of William Delaney No.9 Cdo. A difficult photo for numbering but assuming left to right as you view it:
Top row (7 men): 1-7. n/k
2nd row down (3 men): 1. nk; 2. n/k; 3. Graham Douglas
3rd row down (11 men): 1. nk; 2 (with hands on shoulders of man in front). n/k; 3 (slightly behind 2). Norman Smethurst; 4. William Henry Delaney; then all follow on a slightly lower level5-10. nk; 11 (standing far right). nk.
