petet Posted 23 March , 2019 Share Posted 23 March , 2019 I am trying to piece together information regarding No 35 Squadron personnel that were taken POW and wondered if anyone could add any information about the location that they were held, or any other details regarding their capture. I would also be interested to know what the procedure was for repatriation (ie why were they repatriated at these points in time) Any help would be much appreciated: RA Burnard (Wounded) Captured: 31/03/1918 Repatriated: 18/12/1918 LH Button Captured: 09/08/1918 Repatriated: 29/01/1919 H Elliott Captured: 08/08/1918 Repatriated: 13/12/1918 B Hall Captured: 09/08/1918 Repatriated: 05/12/1918 AS Hanna Captured: 31/03/1918 Repatriated: 18/12/1918 FI Rogers Captured: 08/08/1918 Repatriated: 17/12/1918 TA Urwin Captured: 12/01/1918 Died of Wounds: 12/01/1918 (Died at Bohain) JH Young Captured: 12/01/1918 Died of Wounds: 12/01/1918 (Died at Seboncourt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
