Thank you all, this is very interesting. I will apply for his service records.
I'm not sure if I have mentioned this before, however, he wrote a small booklet on his experiences in various Pow Camps. This is held in the Mclean Museum in Greenock.

Sam was a POW for four years and stayed initially at one of the worst camps – Gastrow. He wrote his experiences down in a pamphlet “Four years in Germany as a Prisoner of War”.
