Thomas died on 5th July 1941, 11 days before I was born, the youngest of a family of six. My mother received a telegram stating that her eldest child was missing, presumed dead on the sinking of the Anselm, so unfortunately I didn't get to meet my brother.

Dvr. Robert Beck . British Army Royal Army Service Corps from Glasgow My father, Robert Beck was held in POW camp Stalag XXB. He was a driver in the RASC and captured in the rearguard around Dunkirk.
