Pte. J. P. Adamson*

James Pringle Adamson was best man at David Morrison's (Richard's Grandad) wedding in Inverness in May 1943.


He married Elizabeth Telford in April 1942, in Galashiels.


*A relative stated that James was actually wounded on D-Day whilst still on Sword Beach. There's a chance it may not have been reported for a couple of days (due to them being a bit busy during that time).


He continued to serve after the war as we have photos of him in the Middle East. James has a special mention page here and, due to the amount of information we were able to find, there is also an article on how we discovered information about his wedding photo - here
