The people I am trying to find are as follows
The squad RM numbers were between 24875 and 25020 although there were a couple of others before that who had been backsquadded and joined us sometime during X troop.
RM 24996 M(ick?) J Allen was an ex Matelot and we believe he came from Derby. He went on an HW3 course after training
John Wright who came from Peterborough 45 Cdo after training
Michael Hughes who would be about 78 now having been one of the older recruits. We’re not sure where he came from. 45 Cdo after training
Jim Walker. He came from Worksop but we know that after leaving the Corps, he joined the Hampshire police and served in the Isle of Wight. I have tried the Hampshire police but apparently they have no current address for him. 45 Cdo after training
Jim Gorley came from Cockermouth but I have no other details 45 Cdo after training
J. Tennyson who they called Paddy although I don’t know whether he was Irish or not. 45 Cdo after training
Dave Kerr – he went out to Aden with 45 but I have no idea where he came from
Tom S. Cooke who was from Birmingham. 45 Cdo after training
Pat Touze. Welsh mother and French father. He doesn’t seem to have passed out with us but certainly was with us to the end as far as I remember.
Dave Pettifor from Nottingham. He went on an S3 course after training.
There are four others whose addresses I think I may have found. I have written but had no reply. They are:
Nino Rusconi and M.J. Waymouth both from Wales
P. Coston from somewhere in Norfolk. He went out to HMS Delight and finally
PTI Vince Greenhouse. I think he was from Wales but it seems from Facebook that he may now be in Durham but if he is the one, all attempts to contact him have failed.
Any help you can give would be very much appreciated and you can contact me on the following email.
