Hi! I have just found out that my Great, Great Uncle was a POW in Stalag XXB Malbork, Poland. His name was Harry Frederick Kelly. I have just found out that he was a Rifleman for the Kings Royal Rifle Corps. Army Number 6846638, POW Number 4671. I have spoken to his daughter and she said he never really spoke much about his time there he only mentioned some of the funny things that happened. This is what she knows: he was sent to France in 1939 and was told he was to help defend Calais. This was not the case. He was captured and marched to Stalag XXB. He was there for 5 years. He worked on a farm and always said the the Frau fed him well. He was liberated in 1945 but got mumps on his way home and was sent to an American hospital in France.
He is in the picture that Greg Anthony has posted on page 4. He is the man on the bottom left. I would love to here if anyone has any info on him and his time in the camp or if he had any friends in there.
