Cpl. Thomas Bolitho White "Tacky" Taskis . British Army 979 Port Repair Ship Coy. Royal Engineers from St. Just, Cornwall My father, Thomas Taskis originally attested as a boy soldier aged 16 years 1 month on 1st September 1936, as a gunner in 263 AA Bty, Royal Artillery.
He was discharged from the RA on attestation at 18 years of age on 18th July 1938, as a private in the Hampshire Regiment. He was promoted to lance corporal in 1938, but reverted to private at his own request again in 1938.
He served with the 2nd Btn Hampshire Regiment until after his return' home' on 4th June 1940, they had been in Belgium and France with the BEF between 19th September 1939 and 3rd June 1940.
He appears to have transferred to Corps of Military Police - 69th Traffic Control Coy - shortly thereafter.
He was then in some trouble having gone AWOL between 4th and 20th October 1941, losing 16 days pay and served 21 days detention. He had returned to St Just and was apprehended there.
He is compulsorily transferred back to the Hampshire Regiment on 1st April 1942.
He is then transferred to No. 7 TBRE on 14th September 1942.
He served at Home until the 6th June 1944, is in the NW Europe theatre between 7th of June 1944 and 27th of September 1944 and then Home between 28th of September 1944 and 2nd of April 1945. He is permanently discharged from military service as a Corporal on 2nd April 1945, being no longer fit for military service.
I don't believe he could have been with No. 7 TBRE whilst serving in NW Europe and indeed, the notes with his medal entitlement suggest he was with 979 Port Repair Ship, there was a 979th Inland Waterway Transport Coy, RE, serving with the 21st Army Group in NW Europe.
At the time of his discharge he was in the 45th Division, which was a holding division under War Office control - a division holding troops in preparation for transit elsewhere.

Seaman Alan William "Spud" Tatham . Royal Navy HMS Pozarica from 26 Chipstead Lane, Kingswood, Surrey My father Alan Tatham only served one year on HMS Pozarica before he transferred to HMS Collingwood as an instructor. My Father was transferred to HMS Formidable early in 1944 from HMS Collingwood as a leading seaman and saw extensive action with the Pacific Task Force. He never spoke about the horrors he witnessed but after his demise in 1989 l found a secret diary written in dark corners that tells of those awful times, the Diary took me six months to decipher the hurried scribble and I have given it in perpetuity along with the transcription and photographs to the Royal Navy Museum at Portsmouth who said that a diary such as his was very rare. The Diary is accessible to read at the Museum on request.

Robert Tave . French Army 92nd Infantry Rgt. I am looking for information about Robert Tave, interned in Stalag IB on 24th June 1940, before being transferred to Stalag IIID after an unsuccessful escape attempt. After several months in the Stalag, Robert met a young Russian woman named Yelena, who was in the camp with her mother. Robert and Yelena fell in love and their love endured in this difficult time, despite the circumstances in which they met. Everything changed when Robert learned that Yelena was pregnant. He did not wish for his child to be born in a prison camp.
They made the decision to escape and to go to Russia which at that time was nearer. After several days on the run, along with their friend Arthur, they were recaptured. They were then separated forever. Yelena, at the request of the labour camp director was sent to Poland, while Mr Tave said he was deported to Berlin.
For months Robert sent parcels to Yelena via the Red Cross, and then one day the parcels stopped. At that time, Germany was being pounded relentlessly by the Allies, while Russia was quickly advancing on another front, via Poland. Does anyone know anything more about Robert and Yelena?

Sgt. Albert Edward Taylor . Royal Air Force 214 Squadron from Middle Road, Sway, Hampshire (d.23rd Nov 1940) On the recent death of my aunt, we have found documentation relating to her brother, Albert Edward.
He died in 1940 as per an entry in the 'Operations Record Book' but I have tried several different websites and can find no records for him. The 214 Squadron were on a mission to bomb the Chancellory in Berlin on 23rd November 1940 but his plane failed to return.
We have no date of birth for my uncle and, as he was missing in action, no death certificate.
On requesting copies of said birth certificate via 'My Ancestry', there is no record of any births in the village of Tinkletown, Dorset recorded for Albert Edward Taylor 1920, the year he was born.
I have looked on the RAF website but cannot find any record of him there. I have got the Runnymede listings and he name is on Panel 20.
If you could give me any other sites that might be able to help me

Dvr. Albert Edward Kenneth Taylor . British Army 235th Field Park Company Royal Engineers My grandfather Ken Taylor was in the 235th Field Park Company, Royal Engineers which, I believe, became part of the 50th Division. He was a prisoner of war from 29th May 1942 until 19th May 1945 and was captured by the Italians at Knightbridge, Africa. He was taken to PG 78 camp in Sulmona and while he was there, like most other POWs he kept a diary. In his diary he mentions a man named Harry Kingley from Brighton who he shared rations with to make them go further as they were often dropped to quarter issues and so they had to make do.
He writes that while at the camp two lads were shot trying to escape and one died a few weeks later. Further on in his diary he writes "Sept very exciting month Italy coming out of the war. Sulmona bombed by British planes had a very nice view from the camp we allowed to go out. Then Jerry came and we made for the mountains was 4 days living on sheep got recaptured on Sept 17th after great hardships then got pushed of to Germany nearly on the borders of Poland."
My grandfather ended up Pilsen where they kept him for three long years and was finally returned to military control according to the register form for recovered allied prisoners of war on the 19th of May 1945. He served almost another year on his return.
My grandmother told us that he went away with jet black hair and came back with ghostly white hair, who knows what he endured but I am immensely proud of him.
