246114 Pte. Albert William Worth British Army Durham Light Infantry from:Walkhampton, Devon My father Albert Worth was captured very early in the battle of El Alamein, on 23rd October 1942. How a lifelong Devonian ended up in the Durham Light Infantry I don't know. He ended up in in E344 Blechammer POW camp Stalag 8b and despite being bombed a number of times he survived. He then survived the notorious death march from this camp. One thing he told me was being brought home as passenger in a Lancaster. He saw terrible things during his imprisonment, and was himself a little over 7 stone on returning to his Devon village.
