Fort William Commando Commemorative Stone
The Commandos in Lochaber
During World War II the Commando Basic
Training Centre was established at nearby
Achnacarry Castle and field training
commenced over the surrounding countryside.
Permanent staff and Commando trainees were
warmly welcomed by the local people and a
deep bond of friendship and mutual respect
created that has prevailed to the present day.
In recognition of this and to thank the people
of Lochaber and Fort William, this commemorative
stone was commissioned by the Commando
Veterans Association, whose veteran members have
proudly worn the coveted Green Beret and served
their country valiantly at some time during the
seventy years since the Commandos were formed.
Unveiled by Donald Cameron of Lochiel,
XXVII Chief of Clan Cameron,
Saturday 13th November 2010.
