My Dad was a Royal Marine Commando. Yes. He played in the band but he still did the full training and in a war sitch he and his fellow band members were trained MEDICS.
His brother, Jim, was Navy.
My Mum was a WRENS – Women’s Royal Naval Service. She and Dad met in Deal, Kent.
My younger brother was a Royal Marine Commando. He served for years in Poole, Dorset with the SBS as CommsLog.
My youngest brother was Royal Navy.
My great uncle was Royal Navy – and got medals.
I joined the Army :o)
Anyhoo.
America Won WW2.

By the way – the Clan Donald (Lily’s Clan) motto is shown above. The Royal Marine Commando motto is –
Per Mare, Per Terram
I’m the weakest link. That’s why I chose the Army.
UNFORGIVABLE SEASICKNESS, anyone?

Thank y’all
