Sam Bainbridge
British Army
Among my late mother's papers was the attached photo sent to her in Burscough, Lancs, by Sam Bainbridge, who is presumably one of the men in the picture. The reverse gives the references 5999, K2780, Stalag VII A.
My family does not remember Sam, but can anyone explain why two of the faces have been excised? I think I remember my mother saying that's how it arrived, presumably censored - but why?
