Marine Ronald Singleton died during operations at Dieppe, France. He has no known grave. Mentioned in Despatches (posthumous) in recognition of gallant and distinguished service during the attack. 
Statement by RSM H.F. Martin RM

"Whilst approaching the beach we were engaged by heavy machine gun and rifle fire. The C.O. ordered the buildings on the beach from where the fire was coming to be engaged by L.M.G. I passed the order forward and a gun opened up by Marine Bradshaw.
I also ordered the H.Q. L.M.G. into action which was manned by Marine Singleton. Both guns were kept continuously in action until such time as the targets were obscured by smoke. During this time the M.L.C. (Mechanised Landing Craft) was repeatedly hit by bursts of machine gun fire and very accurate rifle fire from the beach.
Owing to the position of this M.L.C. these men had to stand up to engage the targets, and Singleton's gun was in action until all the ammunition at his disposal was used up. Both these men carried out their duties very courageously whilst under heavy fire and without thought to their own personal safety."

"Marine Ronald Barry Singleton, aged 19, son of Mr and Mrs G. Singleton, of 115 Hebden Road, Liverpool, 11, has been killed in action while serving with the Commandos. He formerly attended St Margarets Central School, Anfield. His father served throughout the last war and is an 'Old Comtemptible' (see note)."
