Pte. Frank Albert Bacon
British Army Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment
from:Great Yarmouth
My Grandfather Frank Bacon only ever spoke to me about the Army prior to WW2 as he spent 7 years in India before being called up in May 1939 to fight in WW2.
I have found quite a lot more about him, but sadly it was after he passed away. But we did find out all the different POW camps he was held in including Posen.
We also found that he was part of the British Expeditionary Force and entered the war in 1941 and was injured in battle, captured because of his injuries.
He was released in May 1945.
