L/Bmbdr. James William Gardiner
British Army 28th Field Regiment Royal Artillery
from:Birmingham
(d.20th August 1944)
Captured during the offensive action at the Gazala line, it appears that James Gardiner was taken prisoner and transported to PG53 before being taken to Lamsdorf Stalag 344 in Poland by the Nazis. Sadly, during an American air raid on the I G Farben factory, my great uncle lost his life. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to obtain any pictures/photos of James.
