A hero who saved countless lives as a Second World War stretcher bearer, even carrying one wounded soldier for two miles over his shoulder to reach safety, has died at 100.
Denis Bounsall enlisted at just 15, underage, but determined to serve his country, which he did with extraordinary bravery, once taking two prisoners armed with just a pair of scissors.
He saw action in Malta, Normandy, Holland, Italy and Germany, and survived three different assault landings, including D-Day, in just 11 months.
