hi toni

my grandfather was in a fair few camps around england,they seemed to move around a fair bit.but i am finding it a struggle to find out about individual camps or where the records if there is any are kept.i was lucky that my grandfather kept most of the papers,and all the camps he was at was named with dates.im also contacted the red cross to see if they have any records,im just waiting for a reply.
