I have just found your website and discovered your list of names of POWs. My father was in Stalag VIIIB Lamsdorf / Stalag 344 but I couldn’t see his name.

Lance Corporal Robert Douglas Bradley 12402

A Coy, 6th Field Ambulance, Burnham MC,

3rd Echelon, 2nd N.Z.E.F.

He was captured on Crete and taken by cattle train to Lamsdorf.

He did spend time in a German Military Hospital in Poland, due to sickness, but on his return, played in a Pipe Band in the camp.
