Pte. Robert Peacock
British Army Cameron Highlanders
from:Clydebank
Robert Peacock was my Great Uncle and was part of the sacrificial rearguard action at Dunkirk by the 51st Highland Division. He was captured and became a POW. According to his own testimony he escaped 6 times but was caught.
Having known this man I have no reasons to doubt his evidence. All I know is that he was imprisoned in Stalag IXc but ended in the salt mines of Silesia.
It is important to me personally to trace his war history as he never talked about it much. Any help would be much appreciated.
