"The Commandos, also known as the British Commandos, were formed during the Second World War in June 1940, following a request from the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill, for a force that could carry out raids against German-occupied Europe. Initially drawn from within the British Army from soldiers who volunteered for the Special Service Brigade, the Commandos' ranks would eventually be filled by members of all branches of the British Armed Forces and a number of foreign volunteers from German-occupied countries. By the end of the war 25,000 men had passed through the Commando course at Achnacarry. This total includes not only the British volunteers, but volunteers from Greece, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, and the United States Army Rangers, which were modelled on the Commandos."

See his obituary in The Times, 16 June 1987. 1p, 4to. On aged and lightly creased and worn paper. Folded twice, with short closed tears to edges of central horizontal crease. Addressed to 'Dear Hide' and 'Lieutenant G. Hide, R.N.V.R. / 700 Squadron / TWATT.' Signed 'Robert Neville'. He feels 'very guilty' that he did not write to thank Hide 'for the Walrus, which was, of course, an absolute Godsend to me. Sargent could not have been a more delightful or obliging pilot. He made my trip for me.' To make matters worse, he wants to ask Hide for another favour, with regard to the return journey of another visit he has to make to Scapa: on his journey from Edinburgh, he asks if Hide could get him to Donnibristle. 'My reason for wanting to be back here on Thursday is a genuine Service one, and I should be endlessly grateful if you can help me. My address will be: c/o Admiral Commanding, Orkneys and Shetlands.'
