Pte. Francis Maude Wedgbury
British Army 8th Battalion Worcestershire Regiment
from:Redditch
My father, Frank Wedgbury was captured near Dunkirk on the morning of 2nd June 1940, which was his 21st birthday. I believe he was one of the few survivors of B Company, 8th Worcesters, who fought the rearguard at Bambecque. He spent the remainder of the war in Stalag 344 (previously VIIIB)in Poland, and was liberated in May 1945
