Tpr. James John Floyd
Canadian Army Company B First Hussars
from:London, Ontario, Canada
My father James Floyd was captured at a battle in Le Mensil Pantry after the Normandy invasion I believe on 11th June 1944. He was a tank driver with the First Hussars Company B. He spent a year in stalag 357 until liberation. He gave some statement at the trial of Kurt Meyer therefore I believe he must have been captured by the 12th SS. I would like any information anyone has. He never talked a lot about the war and i know most of his company was captured or killed.
