from:New Glasgow, NS, Canada

My dad, Nat Duggan, was shot down over Holland in May 1943. He was in hiding with the Dutch Resistance and then made his way to Brussels. He traveled by train to Paris and was captured at the Bristol Hotel fifteen minutes after his arrival. He was put in a prison cell and on Aug 9 1943 met American Air Gunner, Hank Palaski. After Gestapo interrogation and being beaten up, he eventually was sent to Stalag 4b in Germany. He was there Nov 4th, 43 to April 22nd, 1945. His note in his war log states: Apr 23rd, 1945 three Russian soldiers rode into camp on horseback 8.00 am officially released.
