From: Michael Kelly‎

Communicators, Last commission of HMS Diamond 1967-1970.

Back row L-R. UK, UK, Smudge Smith, UK
Front Spider Kelly, Harry Harrison, Norman Woodward (rip) UK

Paul Flynn Spider - the back row, second from left, was a wee Scotsman (Jock something), but the other three UK are a mystery to me - never seen them before and pretty sure they were not comms. Did not know that Woody had died - he was a good bloke.
