Hi grendav2001,

Thank you very much for taking the time to join the messageboard here and highlight these WW2 newspaper reports.

geo. stoker. 3 december 1940. aged 36. p.o.w.

geo wm. l/seaman. 18 november 1940. aged 36. missing at sea. of 14 bower street, west hartlepool.

george wm. 28 october 1941. l/stoker. mentioned in despatches. bower street.

george wm. 28 october 1942. p.o.w. photo and family history.

g w (stoker). 23 march 1944 only survivor of sub and p.o.w.

Would be very interested to see more details of these entries if possible, thank you!

You might be interested to see some others parts of the website here regarding these men:
