Sgt. Thomas William Chisholm

Royal Air Force

from:Newcastle upon Tyne

My Grandfather Thomas Chisholm served with the 5th Northumberland Fusiliers. I have a diary of the time he spent as a POW. He was captured 27th May 1918 at the Battle of Aisne, and spent a month at Darmstadt before being shipped to Giessen. He was registered at Giessen 3rd July 1918. He was eventually shipped out 1st January 1919 on the HMS Concord arriving in Copenhagen 2nd January. I have published his diary.

In the Second World War he joined the Royal Air Force and served on Barrage Balloons at RAF Long Benton.
