Frank "Knocker" Johnson

British Army Welch Regiment

from:Cardiff

My dad, Frank Johnson known as Knocker, from Cardiff, was captured in Crete by Germans, sent to Stalag 8b worked in a salt mine in Poland. I would love to hear from any one in same camp or the Welch Regiment. He tried to escape but was shot through foot, and said he was waiting to be transferred to Germany, left in train on sidings for 3 days and had head lice as big as 5p. He also faked appendix pain, and was operated on, using a lid from an empty can.
