Pte. Samuel Slavin

British Army 4th Btn Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders

from:Glasgow

(d.14th Oct 1944)

In January 2010 a group of friends from Liverpool visited Auschwitz in Poland. Whilst there we also visited the Main Cemetry in Krakow and came upon the grave of Samuel Slavin. Jis relatives may like to know that we said a prayer and placed a poppy on the grave. Although covered in over a foot of snow, it was clear to see the site is being well maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

I do not know if Samuel is related but as an ex soldier myself I can appreciate the sacrifice made by our Servicemen and women.
