Ealier this month I had a pleasure to guide very special guests - the family of Corp. William George Stone. He was serving in 2nd Batallion, Royal Norfolks was taken into captivity in France while coming back from Dunkirk. He wan only 22 back then. In Stalag XXA, he spent whole II WW, but he never spoke about his stay. In his 100th birth anniversary, his relatives visited Torun to put flowers and sing their father favourite song: Flanadan and Allen - Underneath the Arches... Many thanks to MHW friends for your time and hostility!
This blog is dedicated to people who were imprisoned in Stalag XXA in Thorn in 1939-45. We would like to show you that in the shadows of the beautiful gothic city there is also forgotten history.
