Im Dennis James’s granddaughter and im so happy to see him credited for his bravery during his life. Id also like to add more to his history.
He was also in the welsh fusiliers rather than going down the pit. He then transferred to 11th Scottish commandos before joining the 1st SAS. I hope you can add these bits into the caption of this photo. Many thanks S. James

I’m Dennis’ great grandson Dylan Podmore i live in Staffordshire in England! I live here with Dennis’ daughter Karen (my nan) and her 4 Daughters, Jo, Jemma, Kerry, and Katrina we’ve been trying to find more of our distant family for a while now so if you want to, send me a message on facebook
 
Dennis was my father I'm proud of him today as I've always been miss him terribly but I know he watches over me he made that promise the day before he passed
 
I'm Dennis's youngest son, Steve, I made sure he had a legacy by writing about him many years ago, or nobody would be any the wiser about this absolutely amazing hero. My father is and always will be my hero.
