Charlie Palmer
British Army 7th Btn. Royal Armoured Div.
from:Peckham
My father-in-law Charlie Palmer was in the 8th Army in North Africa from 1941 onwards, having enlisted in 1938. He told me he was `in tanks'. Charlie was taken prisoner early in 1942 by the Italians and spent over three years in POW camps in Italy, escaping on three or four occasions before being transferred to a `punishment' camp in Germany.
