Scope and content
A printed map of mainland Europe, dated 30 June 1944, produced by the Red Cross & St John War Organisation, showing the locations of the principal prisoner of war camps holding British and Commonwealth soldiers. The map was owned by Emrys W. Evans’s mother at Caernarfon. Evans has later traced in ink the route of his journey through Germany, from his capture near Hamburg on 17 August 1943, through the interrogation centre for airmen at Dulagluft, to his final destination at Stalag IVB near the river Elbe.
