Cpl. Ted Sinnott 2 Commando
My late Uncle Cpl Ted Sinnott, born 1921, Widnes, Cheshire (then Lancashire) taken pow at raid on St Nazaire, France 28/3/1942. Eventually transferred to Lamsdorf 8b / 344 around June 1942 before transfer to Stalag XXA Thorun, Poland (1944) and eventually Stalag 357 Fallingbostel, Germany and liberation April 1945. He served with South Lancs Regt. before joining No 2 Commando in late 1940 after surviving Dunkirk. It would be great if anyone reading this knew of my uncle or about life in this camp.
Sergeant Frank Vivien Mullins M.M. South Lancashire Regiment
I have been trying to trace my Grandads war service information in vain for quite some time now. I did know him when I was young , but even my Mother doesnt know much about his history. He never spoke much about the war but we think he won a military medal at Arnhem? I also think he was a regimental sergeant Major? Any advice would be gratefully received.
