Hello all

My Great Uncle joe was in the first ever Regiment of the SAS

He was captured when in italy and he escaped then recaptured then escaped

He was a great man and died about 4 years ago

I would always speak to him but never about the war to him as it made him 2 emotional. I was wondering if any 1 has any info about The SAS operations when in Italy/Italian occupation country.

I will post a picture of his regiment back in the day and also a plate we were sent when he died from the Army. Theres only 200 of them in the world and is giving to all who served in the First regiment of the sas. I will try get some pictures up of them l8r tonigt
