The Commando was formed on the 23rd June 1940 reaching full strength in September at Burnham on Crouch, Essex. Mostly made up of members of the various Guards Brigades, it became unofficially known as No 8 (Guards) Commando.
Training took place with the Commando moving from Largs in Ayrshire to Lamlash on the Isle of Arran.
On the 24th October 1940 No 8 Commando and No 3 Commando were reorganised into 2 companies of the 4th Special Service Batallion. The Batallion HQ was at Brightlingsea.
A further reorganisation back to the smaller individual Commando units was authorised on the 26th February 1941. However just prior to this on the 31st January/1st February 1941 the Company consisting of No 8 Commando and a few from No 3 Commando became part of Layforce sailing to the Middle East as 'B' Batallion Layforce.
They operated as such until the Commando was disbanded with many of the former members of the Commando moving to units such as Middle East Detachment 2 (later renamed Special Service Detachment), the Long Range Desert Group, Special Boat Squadron, and L Detachment Special Air Service Regiment. Others went back to their original Guards Regiment.

Casualty Lists 1939-45 / National Archives file WO 417/30.
In 1946 the Army Council decided that the Army Commandos were to be disbanded and no provision was allowed or made for any depository or office which would have at least contained a complete Roster of Names of the men who served in the various units.
For historical & research purposes, we have tried to compile the names of all No.8 Commando volunteers which were obtained from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Lists of Casualties, the No 8 Commando War Diary, papers from the National Archives and further research by members of the CVA and various other resources. In preparing this list, we acknowledge that it is very likely there are omissions.
Note: Where a service number is shown on our nominal rolls and no source is shown in the end column, it should be treated as possible but not confirmed. Contact the Archive if you suspect an error.
