Bernard John Stanton Hamshire

British Army Royal Signals

from:Rye, East Sussex

My late father Jack Hamshire, was reported missing on 28th April 1941, following action at Kalamata, Greece. He was transported from Greece in open cattle rail-trucks and held prisoner at Stalag XVIIID, and for a short time at Stalag XVIIIA. During his internment he was assigned to a work camp on local farms. Both camps were liberated in 1945. I have his prisoner dog-tags showing PoW No: 4208 and a picture of him at a workcamp, believed to be Workcamp 487L. My father is the chap on the extreme right in the photo.
