250317 Pte Ernest Benfold My Father, Ernest Benfold was picked up in Dunkirk and spent 5 years in a Prisoner of War Camp in Czechoslovakia. The family who looked after him at the end of the war wanted him to marry their daughter. He was promised to my Mother so refused their offer and returned home. He subsequently married my Mother, Dorothy Atherton and had 4 children. He worked as a miner until he was 62 and then worked in a factory until retirement. He always thought he was a lucky man and lived until he was 91 years of age. He was and will always be the hero of our family.
