Photograph showing the Rhine crossing: two Commandos looking out for snipers among the ruins of Osnabuck, 4 Apr 1945. Armed with a Bren Gun and Thompson sub-machine gun, the commandos were probably members of No. 10 (Inter-Allied) Commando which captured the town alongside 6th Airborne Division. No. 10 (Inter-Allied) was recruited from the volunteers of many nations who had fled to Britain to carry on the fight after their own countries had been occupied by the Germans.
