Rfmn. Henry James Robinson
British Army King's Royal Rifle Corps
from:Scarborough
My father, Henry James Robinson, known as Harry, was wounded with shrapnel in his leg and captured at Calais in 1939 . He was taken to Stalag 20B where, despite escaping at least once, he spent the rest of the war. He returned home to England in 1945 and emigrated to Australia around 1947. Very little has been heard of him since then which is why my story is fairly vague as he was not around to give me any details. If any one has any news of him, either in the camp or since I would dearly love to hear from them. I enclose a photo which I believe is from the camp. Harry is the tall one in the middle of the back row.
