Title: Anybody help with Richard T. Scott in Oflag VIIB during WW2
Post by: Stirling 76 on Monday 02 December 13 11:00 GMT (UK)

I'm looking for help with a Captain Richard T. Scott from Hawick in Scotland. I'm unsure of the Regiment, in fact I don't have much about him. I do know that he was in Oflag VIIB in Bavaria, so he would have been captured around 1940-41. Any help would be grateful, if anyone has come across this name!
