 I don't know if anyone has seen the "Youtube" video published by a person called Simon Mitchell when he visited the site, the video is called PG70.Ex Campo di Prigionia (PG 70). He walks round the site and buildings very interesting.

Apology for the delay in sending you the image of handkerchief, I can only compress the image to 650KB, over the limit of the site, any suggestions I have a Mac.

I to have been trying to locate PG70 because I have in my possession an embroidered white handkerchief that was created by someone in the PG70 camp. My father was the owner of the handkerchief and inscribed on it was the names of the people who were prisoners of war from the 68th HAA Regiment, Royal Corps of Signals, who where captured at Tobruk in June 1942. My father, after the capture of the Italians, was moved to Stalag1VB, I will also be looking into that camp also.

I am in touch with the Royal Corps of Signals Museum for information.

I will send you, a copy of the handkerchief for you to view, when I scan in the image.

Also, I am researching other avenues re PG70 and Stalag1VB.

Hope this is of interest to you.
