There are copies at The Gordon Highlanders Museum and maybe there might be a mention of him in the magazines. They give news about members of the regiment.

Paul, my uncle was born in 1926 so that would have been early 40's if that helps narrow it down any.

A word of warning by the way about the WW2 P.O.W. lists that ancestry has access to from T.N.A.
In many cases the camp info is wrong, initials of men are wrong and in some cases country they are held in is wrong.

Brian who has studied the archives of WW2 P.O.W. at Kew for years knows more than anyone what the records hold and their reliability, including the staff at Kew who hold them as gospel.
See his helpful post at WW2Talk about the Ancestry P.O.W. lists.

Cheers,
Derek.
