Member Since: January 2008 Posts: 355 Send Message	I have been trying to find info on my Gandfather for months, & have finally been handed a letter from a prisoner of war camp that was written by him. On the top it has the following: 1531394 GNR BLAIR, W Is this is army number? His name was William Blair. Also on the letter is the follwing: Prisoner of War no: 91028 Camp name & no: Stalag 34L Country: Germany. How do I find out what Regiment he was in? I know you have to send off for records from WW2 by post, but how long do they take? I have searched for him for months and the thought of waiting more months for his records is driving me crazy!!!!!!!!!
