WW2 Commando Memorial

During the Second World War British Commandos and other specialist forces trained in this remote part of north-west of Scotland - an area that was completely closed off for secrecy.

 

This memorial, located at Spean Bridge, near Fort William, commemorates the Commandos. This is the area they trained in.

 

Close nearby is a poignant area put aside for personal tributes to individual Commandos - to those who died in that war but also there are many more modern additions as their deadly job continues.

 

My photo was taken in "Summer" but if you look closely there are still very small areas of snow on the mountains.
