Charles Thomas Smith 1913-1983 Royal Army Service Corp. Driver T/210698

My grandfather was a prisoner of war. He was apparently captured by the German forces in Crete. He was a prisoner for at least four years. Unfortunately I do not have any dates. According to Ancestry searches he was at Stalag 344. He was married to my grandmother in July 1945 in Burnley, Lancashire.
