Do you know if they have more to add?
My uncle was a prisoner in stalag xx A (64) but I can't find his name at all.

I found my other uncle in the roll of honour for world war 2 though, I have also found him on the Commonwealth War Grave site - a very good site for anyone trying to find where relatives lost in the world wars are buried

Thanks Michael,
I think I have found my dad on there, he was a P.O.W. in Italy,

Thanks, Mick. I think they only have European ones so far. My uncle was a POW in a mine in Japan and his name is not there yet.
