Ralph Amato
British Army Cameronian Highlanders
My uncle, Ralph Amato, was a POW in Stalag XXB. His POW number was 18035. He served with the Cameron Highlanders (51st Division) and was captured at St Valery. After he was liberated he was shipped back to England and stationed at a YMCA in Chelsea until his discharge. I know (from some things that my family have said about him) that he was a great artist and played the classical guitar. I'm hoping to hear from anybody who knew him or heard of him. Sadly, he is now dead. He never spoke much to his family and friends about his experiences in the war. I'm looking for any information.
