230388 Charles James Watson British Army My father Charles James Watson, probably known as Jock, was in the British Army when WWII broke out and was captured near Benghazi. He spent most of the war in various POW camps in Italy and Germany, eventually ending up at Stalag 11B in Germany where he was held until the end of the war. Dad's time at Stalag 11B was mostly in the company of Australian and New Zealand captives and their tales of the way of life here brought dad and our family to Australia to live in 1960. In particular, I am looking for an Australian by the name of Gerry Cameron but would love to hear from anyone who may remember my dad.
