Pte. Victor Corker

British Army 1st Btn. York and Lancaster Regiment

from:3A Newlands Grove, Foxwood Estate, Sheffield

Victor Corker was serving in Italy and reported missing on 18th February 1944. He was held in the Mantova Dulag 339. On several occasions he was allowed to visit the Mantova Ospidale Civile where he talked with the Allied wounded under treatment. Letters from Italian Red Cross Nurses suggest that he was a Presbyterian Chaplain, but this has not been proven. Although Dulag 339 was a transit camp, it is believed that Victor Corker may have remained at this camp, as there is no record of his being held in Germany. Casualty List 2026 reports him as now 'Not Prisoner of War'.
