@stuchastosh @RoyalMarines @I_W_M @IWMDuxford @BBCNews @VisitEssex @BBCEssex @ColMuseums @Cambslive Got the names somewhere I'll try to dig them out. David Stirling stood on the right of course and sat in the jeep next to him I believe is Lt Edward McDonald. It is captioned as having been taken on 18 Jan 1942.

We have some nice comms gear used in N. Africa and uniforms, headgear, insignia etc. Also a nice medal set from 'Swag' Jemson DCM.
