Although promoted to the ranks of lance corporal and corporal, respectively, he chose, at his own request, to revert to private, shortly after transferring to No.3 Commando, and before the Dieppe raid.

He never ever spoke about his experiences as a Prisoner of War, only when extremely provoked in a Emsworth Pub, when a soldier was sounding off. I witnessed the tears and anger in his eyes when he retorted "when you see most of your comrades killed in your battalion on a beach, and only a handful are left alive, and then imprisoned for over 3 years and put on the Death March across Europe you won't crow about your experiences then "...... That was the one and only time I ever heard him speak of the personal war experience..dad passed away in August 1985
