Pte. Robert Aitchison
British Army 1st Btn. Border Regiment
from:Wooler
My grandad, Robert Aitchison served with the 1st Border Regiment during WW2. I don't know much, as he never spoke of the war. All I know is that he was captured just outside Dunkirk, then made to walk 1000 miles to a prisoner of war camp, where he lived till the end of the war.
