I've got a copy of the excellent "The SAS and LRDG Roll of Honour, 1941-47" by Ex-Lance Corporal X, QGM and i recently read an entry that mentioned A force. The entry was not about A force instead it was about a SAS or LRDG member but i remember the entry stating that they escorted A force on an operation of some description. I'll go back and look for the entry. I appreciate it won't further your research much but may be interesting background. Mac.
Hi Mac, I've sent the OP a message to alert him to your post as he hasn't been on the forum for over a year. Hopefully he will get it and reply. Steve PS I understand that the SAS LRDG Roll of Honour book is an excellent read. Who knows maybe the anonymous author will see your post one day, via the wonders of a google search, and appreciate the feedback.
I would also try this book for more information and context on 'A' Force: The Deceivers: Allied Military Deception in the Second World War The Deceivers: Allied Military Deception in the Second World War - Wikipedia
Here's 'A' Force in Italy: A Force and the escape and evasion of Allied POWs in Italy (1943-1945) | Fondazione Ranieri di Sorbello – Perugia (Italy) Vitellino

Hi Allan, There should be a Post New Thread button in the upper right, when you are looking at one of the forums, like "General".
