PM means private message.

You can either clik Dale's name and click Send Message, or click Private Messages at the top right corner just under your username, and then click Send New Messae from the menu on the right.

2nd battalion, cheshire regiment was captured in tobruk and posted as missing on 28th -29th june. taken as POW to camp pg 73 in carpi , italy.
i have a photo of him in that camp dated oct 28th 1942.
whilst on an outside working party repairing the local roads, he escaped by hiding down a culvert and fled to the mountains, aided by the resistance he lived rough until the italian capitulation
my father never spoke about the war to me (i was only 15 when he died )
this information was passed to me by a former work colleague of my fathers.
i have various cuttings etc which tracked me fathers wartime experiences.
contact me by email or tel. 01782512262
regards
