Former RAF POWs share experiences with Mildenhall Airmen from Air Force Link Top Stories
About 50 Airmen were given a first-hand account of life in a German World War II prison camp during a question-and-answer session held here Sept. 16.
Dr. Howard Tuck, whose career is dedicated to military history, introduced retired Air Cmdr. Charles Clarke and Andrew Wiseman, both of whom was imprisoned in Stalug Luft III during World War II.
As part of RAF Mildenhall's POW/MIA Remembrance Week, the pair took turns telling how each was shot down and interred at the prison camp. Commodore Clarke told the audience how, after bailing out of his Lancaster bomber and parachuting into a snow drift, he was picked up by German soldiers searching for a downed American aircrew.
