Cpl Robert Sheard . British Army 7th Btn Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry from Leeds My grandad Robert Sheard, served in the 2nd World War, I think with the 7th Battalion of the Ox & Bucks but cannot be sure. He has only talked once about his time serving in the war about 10 or 11 years ago for a project my son was doing at primary school, and this is where all my information has come from.
I am unsure where he served for certain and have no idea of the dates but he did mention Palestine. I am sure he was in Egypt and somewhere in the Suez canal area as I have photos of him there dated 1942.
He definitely served in Italy as he was captured in Rimini in 1944 and was shocked when I realised he'd been a prisoner of war. He was taken to Stalag VII-A located at Moosburg an der Isar in Bavaria, a journey that took 3 days in the back of a cattle cart. He was liberated by General Patton on his way to Berlin in April 1945. He was demobbed soon after and home either just before or after his 25th birthday in June 1945, but I have a photo of him in an army uniform in 1946 with CPL Berry, Bateson and Smallman taken in Plymouth.
If anyone has information, photos or stories in connection with my grandad or the 7th Ox & Bucks can please get in touch. I would really like to know more about his time serving in the army, particularly the people he served with before, during and after the war.

Pte. Langley Robert Ernest Shearer . British Army 4th Battalion Oxford and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry from 41 Magdalen Road, Oxford (d.12th Apr 1945) My Uncle, Bob Shearer was taken prisoner after the Battle of St. Valerie and remained in custody as a POW for the remainder of the war.
Bob was killed, believed by friendly fire, following the exodus when the Soviet Army advanced towards Germany. He died with his friend by his side and was later interred in Hanover Military Cemetery. I have visited the grave but would like to know more about him. He has been described as a likeable figure who used to entertain the family with the spoons. I was born in 1942 therefore never met Bob.
It is believed that Bob at one time served with Scottish Regiments on being captured, but this information is rather vague, though possible. Any information about him would be appreciated no matter how seemingly insignificant it may be considered to be.

Pte. Langley Robert Ernest Shearer . British Army 4th Battalion Oxford and Bucks Light Infantry from 41 Magdalen Road, Oxford Bob Shearer is buried in the Military Cemetery Hanover. He was captured at St. Valerie and imprisoned in Marienburg until end of the war. He is believed to have had some connection with a Scottish Regiment, not sure which one.
Any knowledge please contact his nephew.
