Hi all
Not sure if this is the correct place for this request and if not I do apologise.
I have lots of letters and documents including some stalag postcards of my late stepfather, they are mainly Yugoslavian and German, I was hoping I could get these docs translated one day as he was a prisoner of war in Germany and after the war he came over to the UK as he always said he could not go back to his country. All the documents and letters ect have been scanned to PDF and JPG.
it would be great if I could find out what is in these documents as he passed away over 20 years ago and I have kept a suitcase with all the items in and even his dog tag.
Thanks for reading this and hope someone can help me.

There are people who read German and Yuogslav on RootsChat so you could post them - slowly - on this board, stating the language of the letter in the title, to grab the attention of those able to assist.
Remember to post a decent scan so it can be enlarged by the reader, and to give each a distinctive name so they will post .( .e.g. I add my initials to each of anything I attach to make it unique.)
Good luck .
Wiggy.

Hi Colin
It would be very interesting to see these letters. I presume he was Yugoslav?
