Cyril George Smethurst

Royal Durban Light Infantry

[This is] A great site I just discovered.

Many South African troops were interred in Stalag 344 after the fall of Tobruk.

My Uncle Cyril George Smethurst and friends from Durban spent a lot a time there and would ask that you kindly list him.

Mel Smethurst.
