Ammunition factory Niclasdorf, district Freiwaldau - Aixman, I'd like to join you. I have information about this camp. Write to email (muzeum.ceskaves@gmail.com) Thank you Roman Janas
My name is Roman Janas. I live in the Czech Republic in the district of Jeseník (formerly Freiwaldau) near the border with Poland, formerly with Germany. 50 km from our camp was Lamsdorf VIII B (344). From this camp the soldiers went to the commanders of labor and to the Jeseník district. In my spare time I care about the museum of prisoners. I've been looking for prisoners of war for 12 years. It's my hobby. Muna Mikulovice (Niklasdorf) was one of the commanders of the British prisoners. There were several commands. I'll send some pictures if you find your father there. Do you have any photos of your father? More on my email (muzeum.ceskaves@gmail.com) Thank you for your reply. With friendly greetings, Roman Janas
