Please would you add my father’s name to the inmates of Stalag VIIIB; he was sent there after being captured at Hazebrook (at the time of Dunkirk).

At the end of the war he was marched from the camp, across Poland and Germany. I have his notebook of the places he went through, where he slept and the rations he received. I am happy to share this information. I am planning to re-visit all the places named in his “little black book” during 2014/15.

My father’s name was Cyril Dyson (b1918,  Walkden, Lancashire). He was a Lance Bombardier/Royal Artillery.
