Norman Denbigh . Royal Air Force Fl 14A Hut B7 2 Wing from Headingley
Have just found (pressed inside a 'Boys' Own Annual, 1921-22') a print of Rookie Denbigh's unit, which nearly all those in the photograph appear to have signed on the back. Norman himself died early 1998; one wonders if some of his friends in the picture are still around, albeit nearing 90 now. Will try to scan photo plus its obverse when next I have access to working scanner.

Charles Herbert Denison . Auxiliary Fire Service from Wolves Lane, Palmers Green
My dad, Charles Denison didn't speak much but in his last year he did mention that he fought fires in London. I assume during the Blitz. He did mention and took me, when I was 15, to where they trained which, I seem to recall, was in London around the banking area in a square just off a main street.
I have tried and tried to get further info so if anyone can help me I'd be grateful. All I have is his fireman's axe and thats all. Thank you.

The Forgotten Army – M E Dennert 2004
I watch with pride on Anzac Day
The lads as they march by
I share with them grim memories
But pause to wonder why
One army is forgotten still…
They toiled beneath the sky
those girls who gave their utmost
In rain, hail, wet or dry
They were the ones who tilled the soil
Tho’ some folks thought them balmy
But I’m proud I was a member
of the Womens’ Land Army.

Sgt. Charles Arthur Denness . British Army 797 Water Transport Coy. RASC from 7 Rose Hill, Hampton
My Father, Charlie Denness served in Italy during or before the invasion of Sicily by the allies. His job for the Allied Services, was to be the Sergeant Skipper of a Tea Clipper ship, to deliver guns and ammunition for the use of our army in the invasion. I have seen photo's of my dad standing on the deck of his Tea Clipper with some of his crew. Dad told us some stories of what he did in Italy and on one occasion, when he had returned from one of the 'trips', Dad and his first officer left the ship in harbour to report to his HQ. On his return he found his ship at the bottom of the harbour, a German E-Boat had got into the harbour and sunk the Tea Clipper, with some of the crew still aboard, which include one of his pals 'Mac' who lost some fingers in the action, but some of the crew died and their bodies could be seen in the clear water, tangled in the rigging.
I have tried to find out more about Dad's 'adventure' in Italy during the Second World War, but even though I produced all the information necessary, Enlistment Notice, Grade card, Registration Certificate, Soldiers Service and Pay Book, 3 Soldiers Pay Books, Soldiers Release Book and Transfer certificate to the Army Reserve. But even with all this information, I have found nothing, it's as if my Dad didn't exist. Is there anyone out there, still alive, who remembers Charlie Denness and his adventures in Italy in the Second World War.
Charles William Denney . Royal Marines HMS Berwick
Charles William Denney (now deceased) is my father. As far as I am aware some of his time in WW2 was spent on HMS Berwick, serving in the Royal Marines. I am interested to trace all of the ships on which he served and their activity, campaigns etc. during WW2. I don't know any detail, but I believe some time was spent on Baltic convoys

My father George Alexander Dennis was in Stalag VIIA and Stalag VIIIB during 1941-1945. He is now 93 years old living in Sydney Australia. Often now he seems to be back in the POW camps with his developing dementia. He used to never talk about the war but now it seems to persecute his mind.
