Pte. Henry Barker Watson
British Army Seaforth Highlanders
from:Barkstone nr Grantham
I am attempting to trace the military history of my grandfather for my father.
I have found out that my grandfather, Henry Watson was attached to the 6th, 9th and 2nd battalions of the Seathforth Highlanders. He was caught as a POW in possibly Sicily and was a prisoner of war between July 1943 & October 1945 at a Stalag in Germany. On his repatriation he was posted to the 7th Royal Ulster Rifles. It would be nice to see any pictures or hear any stories about my grandfather that anyone may have.
