Dear All,
I hope you are coping well with all these difficult conditions?
Can anyone please help me out regarding WW2 POW repatriations?
I have searched the Forum and can find articles on WW1 POW repatriation, but can't find anything about WW2 POW repatriations.
I have been looking at British POW's in German hands lists and note some being repatriated in 1942, 1943, etc, and wondered why this may be the case. My first thought was that they might be sick men being sent home to die, but I have nothing to base that upon, other than sympathetic female intuition.
Looking at the WW1 threads, it looks like an agreement was in place where men with more than 4 children were exchanged. I hadn't thought of that! Was that the case in WW2 as well?
Can anyone help please?
many thanks and stay safe.
Amy
