Pte. John Russell "Rusty" Norwood
British Army Royal Army Ordnance Corps
from:Glamorgan, Wales
My husband's uncle, John Norwood was held a prisoner of war in Lambinowice, Poland during WW11. He lost so much weight he he couldn't eat etc. and was in a really bad way when he got home to Wales. He had to have his food fed to him through a straw. He was held in Stalag 344 and his POW number was 221789.
I would be very grateful if anyone can add any more to this story. We are very proud of him and his duty for his country.
