Default Channel Islands Liberation Force 135

Hi all, below is the formation sign for Task Force 135 that was tasked with the liberation of the channel islands from the german occupying forces in 1945.
Apart from the ships HMS Beagle and HMS Bulldog, officers of the Intellegence corps and a contingent of Royal Engineers can anyone tell me which other units made up this force and what insignia they were likely to have worn?

any information and particularly images would be welcome

Regards Tony

You need to look at WO 106/2987. That has the complete OOB for Force 135.
Everything from Royal Artillery to RAOC Sanitary unit.
