Sgt. James Blake Bartlett
British Army Kings Royal Rifle Corps
My late father was a POW at Stalag 383 for the 5 years of WW2 having been taken prisoner at Dunkirk. His name was Sergeant James Blake Bartlett of the KRRC. He never talked about his time there all we know he stayed behind at Dunkirk having been told he would be either killed or captured and he spent the rest of the war as a prisoner of war. When he came home he said that he was flown home in a Lancaster.
