Thanks paul and Mark for help.
I am still doing some reaserch and not getting very far.
I did find a book with a list of men who were in pow camps during ww2, in the book there is a E.L Parker listed so i need to try and see if there is a connection there,but i am not having much luck at the moment.
I am also having problems of trying to find out what regiment he was in . The websites dont give to much away do they.
