213467 Pte. Fred Waltho British Army Leicestershire Regiment My dad, Private Fred Waltho (Leicester Regiment), was held at Stalag VIIIb for quite a while. I still have his German dog tags and some photos. Also lots of letters from him to his mother which I read from time to time and they always make me cry. In them he's obviously trying to be cheerful and remain positive about finally getting home - it breaks your heart. He kept 'his war' quite a private thing, not really ever going into any detail other than to relate the odd funny story. Unfortunately, my dad passed away in 1994, the best dad in the world - I miss him so much, he will always be my hero.
