Pte. John Ronald "Jack" Barnett

British Army 2/5th Btn. West Yorkshire Regiment

from:York

My partner's grandad John Barnett was in B company 2/5th Battalion, West Yorks Regiment and was taken POW at La Bassee Canal in May 1940. We visited the canal, Robeque and Dunkirk which was very interesting, along with the memorial they have placed in Robeque for his regiment. However his grandad died just after he was born so he only has the war diaries to go on anything that happened. Does anyone have any information on this please or know someone still alive that might have fought in the same company?
