To create a fitting memorial for the family, community and friends of John McAleese MM 22 SAS
Our aim is to create a fitting Memorial in Laurieston Falkirk.
John McAleese was part of the 22 SAS Team that rescued 19 hostages during "Operation Nimrod" 41 years ago, at the Iranian Embassy, London.
This memorial will leave a legacy for future generations never to forget the bravery of Britain's Special Air Service Elite Regiment.
The McAleese family and community fully support this memorial campaign, which will be unveiled 26th August 2021.
This project successfully funded on 10th May 2021
