_____________________________________________
A uniquely close-textured experience, quite impossible to have arranged and executed independently,
which has given us a treasure of impressions and thoughts.
John & Gillian Drinkwater – UK
My sister and I took part in this tour as our father had been a prisoner of war between May 1940 and April 1945. We were part of a group of eleven who took part and we shared information and learnt from each other. The programme was well planned and we certainly fitted a lot into the time we had. Because of Gary’s contacts we also were invited to meet with some Polish people who were very interested in our trip and our Father’s stories. This included being invited to a school and to two Civic receptions. We all learnt a lot from the trip and the people we met. At times the experience was moving, emotional and sad, but we also had fun together as a group and got on well, supported by Gary McKay and by Philip Baker. Memories of this trip will stay with me forever.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make the journey to Poland to honour the memory of our father, and to gain more understanding of his experience of being in Stalag V111B at Lamsdorf.
