Pte. Stanley Alexander Easton

British Army 16th Battalion Durham Light Infantry

from:Gateshead

Stanley Easton's service number 4465708 indicates he may have been with the 16th DLI from the early days, and probably joined up about mid 1940. My father was taken prisoner in North Africa probably at the Battle of Sedjenane where he was shipped to Italy and eventually ended up in Poland at Stalag 344. He talked of working in a steel manufacturing factory, and was also in visible contact with other prisoners, such as Slavs, Russians and Jews. He was liberated by the Americans (not sure where from), and was back in the UK by April/May 1945. Any further info would be appreciated.
