Capt. Eric John " " Crews MID.
5th Battalion
from:Guernsey
(d.11th Sept 1944)
Eric Crews was the brother of my late mother Beatrice Le Page nee Crews and they were the children of William Henry and Edith Crews who were deported from Guernsey in 1941/2 to Biberach Concentration Camp by the Germans. Apparently they were being liberated from the camp when they heard that he had died.
As for where he lived, how he joined up, I have no information or photographs at all. Eric now lies in the Leopoldsburg War Cemetery in Belgium.
