» About The Site

This site is dedicated to the memory of Special Forces from World War 2 to the present who served and died in places and under circumstances most of us can only imagine in our worst nightmares.

My research has taken nearly 40 years and is sadly still ongoing as wars and conflicts show no sign of abating worldwide. 

I sincerely hope that no information,errors or omissions cause any offence to families or Associations. 

I hope this site serves as an everlasting memorial to past,present and future Special Forces. 

Please feel free to contact me re errors or additional material.  

In memory of my late father-in-law Adam Anderson,PPA 1944-45. 

John Robertson, Ayr, Scotland

Please note all dates given numerically are in the British format.  i.e. 5.3.2008 is 5th March 2008 and not 3rd May 2008.
