Most enjoyable site.
I found your site while searching for POW camps in Scotland.
I have been to Cultybraggen (Camp 21) many times and believe that it still stands pretty much as it was during the war.
It is still used by ACF CCf etc.
I think |

May I express my gratitude to all those who have made so much effort in creating this site. I was raised in Llanharan and , as a seven -year old, I still remember the excitement that I experienced on Sunday, 11th. Mar. 1945 when I watched truckloads of soldiers arrive in order to search for the escaped prisoners.
Best Wishes,
Norman Woodcock, Welshpool. |

| Found this site by chance. Reminded me of the time I lived in Camp 154 as a child of two after the war. The camp was used to rehome local families due to housing shortage. Happy Days. Thanks for the memory. |

Really enjoyed the text and pictures-especially of Helmut Guettler. At one time the Hitler family name was Huettler or so I've read. |

I came across your site by pure chance whilst looking forinformation regarding the wartime usage of Boughton Camp ,Kirton Road ,Boughton ,New Ollerton ,Newark ,Nottinghamshire.
The site information ,layout etc., are extremely professional and easily followed--Well done.
Any information relating to Balderton Airfield., 439th Troop Carrier Group., Charles H Young., 208 Sqn RAF ., Experimental work by Sir Frank Whittle on the pioneer jet project,whilst he was stationed at Balderton Airfield and living in Balderton Hall would all be greatlfully acknowledged for a local history project that I am putting together. |

| THis brings back many happy memories for me. Whilst attending the Police Dog School at Bridgend, we used to use Island Farm for training and I found it fascinating. I too am a WW2 enthusiast but I am interested in it from the German point of view. I photographed all the drawings on the walls the last time I was there as a permanent reminder. Thank you for all the trouble you have taken to get the information correct. A SUPERB WEBSITE! |

This is a very informative site. I am interested in informations about camp 18, Featherstone Park, Haltwhistle, Northumbria. My father (*1915), was a german POW there. He was brought there as a member of 319. Inf. Div. on the channel island of Guernsey. In his inheritance I found some Photographs of Camp activities like prisoner's theatre ...
My father got a job training as a tailor in camp 18 and I found some souveniers of this time (patterns, tape measure ...) Rgds Monika |

Excellent site,
I found all the facts very interesting, the whole 30sand 40s is a fascinating time in History, and it should be preserved, for future generations to grasp the gravity of the demise of civility in Europe in the 30s40s |
