Ldg Stoker Charles Ernest Spooner . Royal Navy HMS Manchester My father-in-law, Charles Spooner was a stoker first class on The Manchester at the time that
she was sunk. He was then held in a POW camp by the Vichy French and
after his release with the other prisoners he was returned to England
where he was hospitalised in either Hastings or Wales. This was around
1942/3
As my Husbands parents separated he has very little knowledge about
what his Father went through during this time and as I am doing a web
page I would appreciate any information that anyone can give me such as
how many men were on the HMS MANCHESTER, how many survived and how many
days were the survivers in the water before being rescued and does anyone
have any idea what the name of the POW camp would be and what kind of
conditions would be there I understand that it was in North Africa.

He was part of the courier service and went from foxhole to foxhole with orders from the officers to advance, retreat, whatever was needed. He was captured around November 3 just prior to the Battle of the Bulge, on a road in the Hurtigen Forest in Belgium. Although assigned to Stalag 12, mostly he and other POWs were crammed in boxcars and taken to work in the farm fields and at feed mills, carrying sacks of grain.
The POWs were liberated by the Russians near the Black Sea and told to find their way to the coast and live off the land. Dad would tell our family the good stories but mourned the loss of the men he knew and served with in the war in silence.
