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! Regards

John Fitzpatrick .     British Army   from Birmingham

My uncle John Fitzpatrick was wounded at Dunkirk. My parents did not tell me that he had served in the British Army and I only learned of it from his sister, who was an American Nun. John was born in Clonmore (near Templemeore) in County Tipperary, Ireland circa 1912. He emigrated to Birmingham and worked in the building industry. He must have joined the British Army prior to WWII. He died suddenly over twenty years ago and I have sadly got no details of his army records other than the fact that he was wounded in Dunkirk. I would appreciate if someone could tell me which regiment he was with or indeed any other details about him.

Flt.Sgt Wilfred Harold "Wilf" Fixter .     Royal Air Force 106 Sqd   from Middlesbrough

I am trying to find out some more information about Flt/Sgt W H Fixter who was the pilot of Manchester R5840 and was shot down on the night of 2/3 May 1942. We know Roy Dotrice was his rear gunner on this mission and with other members of the crew were picked up from their dinghy, earning him a commemorative Goldfish Badge. He spent time at Fallingbostle and Stalag Luft III plus other camps we are not sure of. My father was not very forthcoming with information as it was a time in his life with events he felt not suited to divulge to a young lady (me). While he was a POW we know from him he used to play poker with the guards to obtain equipment papers etc to help the escape committee. He was a fluent German speaker which also served later when he escaped whilst being marched to Poland towards the end of the war. His escape being assisted by one of the 'friendly' guards. Whilst making his way back towards the Allied lines he stayed on to assist in the interpretation of the inmates, one of whom was Irma Gresa.

We also know that my father flew with Guy Gibson and had completed his training on the Lancs and would quite possibly have been part of the Dambusters raid had events not intervened. Regrettably his flight log books were given to someone other than family as Dad didn't realise they would be of interest to me as I grew older.
