Pte. Arthur Charles Lacey
British Army
My father, Arthur Lacey was a POW in Stalag 18a in Wolfsberg. Does anyone have any memories or knew friends of his? He was a quiet man with black hair who was a skilled pianist. He may have played in the camp as a lot of entertaining went on there. Like many he said very little about it. He was taken prisoner in Greece where his companions had had their heads blown off. He was very sensitive and suffered badly with his nerves when he returned. I was born in 1946 but had a childhood tainted by dad's post traumatic stress. He was discharged from the army with psychoneurosis, as it was then called.
