Only just found this thread. Yes, Dennis was DSATCO at RAF Valley and I was his SATCO 1979-82. Couldn't have asked for a more competent and supportive deputy. He finished his time as SATCO Odiham having held every rank from LAC to Sqn Ldr. He was brilliant at mentoring young airmen and young officers and universally respected. I believe he was also a qualified squash coach, but that always seemed far too energetic for me.......
