Genealogy / Despirate to find records of Polish POW held in Stalag XI-A from 1939-1945 [4]
Merged:
old family records state my dad was captured by Russians in 1939, held for a while in Lagiers then there was a prisoner exchange in Hannover, Germany in 1939 or 1940 and dad went to Stalag XXA , the first of many Stalags . I can find no information online about this prisoner exchange. It must have been a big deal involving many POWs. Does anyone have information on this exchange?
Thanks Roman
