209423 W/O. J. Andrew Burke Royal Air Force My great uncle, Andy Burke, was born in Ireland although both parents were born in the Newcastle-Upon-Tyne area. He was a Warrant Officer in the RAF and was a prisoner of war at Stalag Kopernikus. I know he was on a forced march and suffered injuries that led to the loss of part of his foot. After the war he settled in Catterick, before emigrating to Canada, with his wife Ann (known as Nan). I would really like to know if anyone has any information about him, the camp or information on the long march.
