Subject: Stalag VIIIB Lamsdorf / Stalag 344 POW camp

 

My father Stanley Gordon Jones whom is still alive today was a POW  at Lamsdorf. He was a private in 2nd/7th Battalion in The Australian Army taken at Crete.

He worked in the coal mines and the sugar factory in Breslau now known as Wroclow. He also was picked out from a line-up to work for Karl Bruckner to paint the enormous Gasmeters.

My Father told me of Karl and he would love to know if he has any family still living. My Father is not certain on how Karl spelled his surname.

My father has a photo of a young girl from the time he was in Stalag VIIIB her name is Mariska, a Polish girl who smuggled food to the POWs?
