227296 Philip Leslie Corkill My grandad, Philip Leslie Corkill who I adored along with everyone else in the family, was a POW in Stalag 8B. I know little about his experiences there, but I believe he was the camp barber and was also pretty sharp at picking locks, which he did to get into the food stores to help provide food for prisoners who were malnourished. He was not a man to talk of anything about the war but as family I would love to know anything about what he went through, especially as he has now passed. I would like to hear from anyone who remembers my grandfather.
