I recently obtained my father’s records from the MoD and his casualty card records, him as being held at Lamsdorf in Jan 44.
He was 5507102 Pte. James Monahan, 5th Bn Hampshire Regiment, captured at the battle of Sidi Nsir in Feb 43. He died in 1985, but like so many, never spoke of his experiences.
Suggest an improvment to this record
