Wilf Chorley

British Army 5th Btn East Yorks Rgt

My late father was in the 5th Btn East Yorkshire Rgt. He served in the Faroe Islands and was a POW at Weetzen, Germany. He worked in the sugar factory in 1944.

Update

British POWs book records the following: 8A 82336 Chorley, W.L. Pte 3663680 E. York. 8A is the camp (Goritz), the next number is the person's POW number and the remainder could refer to your late father.
