Title: 74 and 81 British General Hospital May - June 1945
Post by: wbovela on Monday 23 October 17 18:57 BST (UK)

Hello,

I am looking for any and all information about transports of Dutch surviving concentration camp prisoners from Neuengamme out of 74 and 81 British General Hospital which were stationed at Lüneburg, Germany during the month directly following the liberation of Neustadt and Lübeck.

Thank you!

The best source may be the War Diaries at Kew.  That said for some of the hospitals I have been researching (in Burma and India) they are pretty thin and mainly have administrative notes such as postings rather than operational detail.  I wouldn't expect to find lists of patients - I have yet to see one.

Thanks!
Really I'm just looking for transport dates more than anything else.
