Pte. Ernest Gomer Headon .     British Army 1st Btn Royal Welch   from Ystalyfera, Glamorgan

(d.23rd March 1945)

My Uncle, Gomer Headon, was captured in Crete in 1941 and spent the rest of the war in Stalag 8C (prisoner no. 6312). The family say that he died of peritonitis on the forced March out of Poland the day before the column was liberated by the Americans. If anyone has any information, no matter how trivial about my uncle, I would be so grateful.

It is said that when the Germans closed in on Suda Bay in Crete, Gomer (as they family knew him) escaped into the White Mountains with a few other soldiers (presumably trying to reach the British base there) and they managed to evade capture for a few weeks. They were captured when they saw an advancing German troops and tried to take shelter in a cave. Sadly they were driven out of the cave by hornets and captured. His best friend was called Ritchie and he survived the war. While he was in Stalag 8C he cast a lead cap badge of the The Royal Welch. This is still in my mother's possession.

Edward Sydney "Tommy" Healey .     Royal Navy HMS Nelson   from Sydney, Australia

This photo is of my Father-in-Law, Edward Healey he is the sailor on the left as you are looking at the photo. Surviving family have no idea of his war-time service and seem surprised that it appears he was in the Royal Navy, although pre war he was in the merchant navy. All we can see is the name Nelson on the cap and can only assume he was serving on HMS Nelson. The photo appears to be when the ship was probably on a refit in America.

If anyone can shed some light it would be appreciated.

Celebrate your own Family History

Celebrate by honouring members of your family who served in the Secomd World War both in the forces and at home. We love to hear about the soldiers, but also remember the many who served in support roles, nurses, doctors, land army, muntions workers etc.

Please use our Family History resources to find out more about your relatives. Then please send in a short article, with a photo if possible, so that they can be remembered on these pages.














The free section of the Wartime Memories Project website is run by volunteers. We have been helping people find out more about their relatives wartime experiences since 1999 by recording and preserving recollections, documents, photographs and small items.

The website is paid for out of our own pockets, library subscriptions and from donations made by visitors. The popularity of the site means that it is far exceeding available resources and we currently have a huge backlog of submissions.
