Pte. Jack Cansick
British Army Royal Artillery
from:Darlington
My Father, Jack Cansick, was a prisoner at Stalag ivb at Muhlberg.
He was captured in North Africa in 1940 and was liberated by the Russians in 1945
Additional Information:
My grandfather was a POW at Stalag IV-B, whilst there he was the captain of a darts team that won a tournament and the winners were given a wooden shield carved from a red cross box. The shield is carved with all the names of the winning team (8 in total) and one of those is a D.Cansick. Obviously that's not a direct match with Jack, but thought the surname was unusual enough to be of interest to you.
