  • Towards the end of October it was decided to disband the Army Commandos, and with them, the 1st Commando Brigade.
  • 28 December 1945 at Haywards Heath the Commando returned from a period of leave and preparations were made during the rest of the month for sending off the overseas drafts and for eventual breaking up of the Unit. The draft was split into two large groups - one to go to 45 Commando RM on 2 January 1946; the second to H.O.C. Wrexham for drafting to 42 and 44 Commandos already in Hong Kong.

Lieutenant Colonel Campbell Richard Hardy, commanded the 9th RM Bn., until it was redesignated as 46 RM Commando on 1 August 1943. He remained as Commanding Officer 46RM Commando until the end November 1944 when he left to take up the post of  Brigade Commander 3rd Special Service Brigade which was operating in the Far East.
He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order, and a Bar to the Distinguished Service Order, during the Normandy campaign, and later a Second Bar to the Distinguished Service Order during operations in Burma [1] [2] [3] [4].

Obituary by Brigadier Peter Young D.S.O., M.C., M.A., F.S.A.
"Campbell Hardy, who died on the 29th July was, beyond question, the most renowned of the many Royal Marine officers who served with the Commandos in World War II.
He greatly distinguished himself whilst commanding 46 RM Commando in Normandy, and was awarded the D.S.O. and Bar.
Promoted Brigadier, he led 3 Commando Brigade in the last Arakan campaign, at the taking of Akyab and Myebon and in the ferocious fighting at Kangaw, winning a second Bar to his D.S.O.
After the war, Campbell Hardy rose to be Commandant General of the Royal Marines (1955 - 1959). It may be doubted whether in all its long history that ancient corps ever had a better officer at its head.
He was in every way an outstanding officer, at once formidable and kindly. He stood for discipline, but he was as fair as he was strict, besides being blessed with a lively sense of humour. He was above all a fighting commander, a skilled tactician and imperturbably cool under fire. He had the confidence of everyone who served with him.
Let us pay our tribute to the memory of a truly great soldier " [8].

  • Commanding Officer 46RM Commando from November 1944
Citation for the M.C.
At Lion sur Mer on the 6th of June, from the moment of landing under heavy and accurate mortar and shell fire, Lieut. Colonel Gray showed a complete and utter disregard for his own safety. His coolness, cheerfulness and personal bravery were an inspiration to all. On the first morning he was slightly wounded on two occasions and insisted on continuing. His example contributed enormously to the success of the Commando task.
​[Source: London Gazettes Supp. 36676, page 4008 and National Archives WO/373/47/2.]
 
Lieutenant-Colonel Gray was wounded and had to be evacuated on the morning of the 7th June. After recovering from his wounds he returned to command 46RM Commando. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order for for his action during operations at the River Rhine crossing and into Wesel.
 
Citation for the D.S.O.
On 23rd-24th March 1945 Lieutenant Colonel Gray was in command of 46 (Royal Marine) Commando which captured the original bridgehead over the River Rhine.
He attacked across the river in Buffaloes and fought his way inland with unparalleled determination and skill. His men captured two large groups of houses killing over thirty enemy and capturing eighty three enemy in the first ten minutes of the operation. This was only made possible by the speed and dash of this fearless advance where a number of key personnel were lost.
Lieutenant Colonel Gray never allowed the impetus to slacken despite every enemy opposition, and his dauntless courage and sure progress made the brigade task possible. He was in every way an inspiration and example to the men under his command. He was continually under fire from small arms fire from the Rhine to Wesel, and in Wesel was under fire from enemy armed with panzerfausts (hand-held anti-tank weapons) which wounded many of the men around him.
His cool judgement and his complete contempt for danger inspired his men and influenced the battle at a most critical stage.

46RM Commando Nominal Roll

The nominal roll of those who served in No.46 Royal Marine Commando, Royal Marines, is listed by order of surname. The names are primarily compiled from the booklet issued to Veterans in 1946 entitled "The Story of 46 Commando, Royal Marines, by Captain P.K.W. Johnson, RM". The author specifies the Nominal Roll is of those who served between 6th June 1944 and 8th May 1945. However additional names will be added in the future whenever an individual's Commando Service has been established. 

In the absence of any detail on our website, If you wish a name added to this Nominal Roll, you must first provide to us evidence that establishes Commando service. Not all Royal Marines were Commando trained in WW2. Methods of establishing such service can be varied from service records, official letter or other document where it is mentioned, a photo showing commando insignia, books, etc.  Anecdotal evidence is not sufficient.
