L/Bmdr Francis Joseph "Paddy" McLoughlin
British Army Royal Artillery
My late Grandfather, Francis Joseph "Paddy" McLoughlin, was held at camp 4dz near Annaburg and was released by
the Americans at the end of the war. Prior to this he was held at Campo
73, Carpi in Italy following his capture by the Germans in North Africa.
He was a Lance Bombardier in the Royal Artillery, army number 882792, POW
number 247056 and had previously been in France before escaping from
Dunqerqe.
If anybody has any information on either camp or knew of my Grandfather I
would love to hear from them.
