Latest update 11
February 2011: Changes to the "Sources & Links" page particularly
concerning how to get copies of German PoW Record Cards (if they still exist).
These are no longer available free from the Service Personnel & Veterans
Agency but now have to be be requested when applying for Service Records (from
the MOD website). NB the procedure for this has also changed eg copy death
certificates required but the fee remains the same at £30. See full
details and working links on the "Sources
& Links" page.
Please note that the e-mail
address supplied in the "Contact Me" tab has now been "blackholed"
due to excessive "Spamming" and is therefore now "dead" with
effect from 30 August 2010. Anyone who has previously contacted me using
that e-mail address should now use either the "Guest Book" tab or, if you want to e-mail me
privately, follow the new instructions on the "Contact Me" tab.
As ever, if you find any factual errors or dead links on the site, please let me
know.
The site has been designed for viewing with Firefox
at 800x600 resolution. This causes some of the photo captions to be
misaligned when viewed using MS Internet Explorer. I have tried to
minimise the effect by compromising some of the caption layouts in
Firefox. Apologies for the amateur appearance whichever browser you are
using. Please advise me of any other anomalies or viewing problems that
you may come across.
