Special Forces - Roll Of Honour 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. Quote: "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. I would like to profoundly thank my son Craig who has created this site for me. In memory of my late father-in-law Adam Anderson,PPA 1944-45.
