Roy Frederick Harding Cawston
Information provided by Jennifer Wilson.
I am the granddaughter of Roy Frederick Harding Cawston who was a POW at Lamsdorf from 18th September 1943 to 22nd January 1945. He was a member of the 4th County of London Yeomanry and was captured in Italy.
I have recently uploaded his account of his time as a POW, “Before I Forget” to Amazon as an e-book. This details his time in Italy at PG-52 then his extended stay at Lamsdorf. He also goes on to to give his horrific account of the forced March across Europe and his eventual repatriation.
His account may be of interest to some of this site’s visitors and I am more than happy to field questions.
Granddad died just over a year ago and I am determined to make a trip to Lamsdorf in the near future.
