Flt.Sgt. Ken Singleton
Royal Air Force
from:Birmingham
My uncle Ken Singleton was held prisoner at Kupernikus in Stalag 357. I am his nephew and I am trying to build his story as sadly he has passed away. I know he was shot down on a bombing raid and that he and one other managed to parachute from the rear of a Lancaster. All others were killed. He was picked up by the resistance but after infection had set into his wounds he was handed over to the Germans. He was treated well and once better transported to Kupernikus.
His prisoner of war number was 3210. He returned home after the war but like many spoke very little about it
