SQMS James "Fitz" Fitzpatrick
British Army 3rd Royal Tank Regiment
from:ALDERSHOT
(d.1946)
I have a birthday card sent from my father in Stalag 383. It is to Barry from Daddy and dated April 1944. He died in Aldershot at 47 years old in 1946 in Aldershot, Hampshire.
He was a good friend of fellow prisoner from Onehunga, New Zealand and my mother kept in contact with the Frazer family and it would be great if I could write to the family.
My father was an above average football player in the pre-war days. Any contact with Fitz's friends would be a wonderful moment for me because I am writing my autobiography (I am now close to 80 and have had a wonderful worldwide engineering career and have a photograph of him with me when I was 2 learning to walk!
