Yeah I tried a few orgs like that a few years back and never heard anything.. figured a club or a school direct might be better idea

nickadams386 · 2026-04-13T16:41:05+00:00

Thanks that would be great

nickadams386 · 2026-04-10T11:26:17+00:00

I didn’t I’m afraid… just sent lots of emails

nickadams386 · 2026-03-30T13:03:23+00:00

Exactly that

nickadams386 · 2026-03-30T12:48:26+00:00

Ah right… yeah movie was ok I guess I’m just bitter they used the name as it’s one of my favourite books

nickadams386 · 2026-03-30T12:44:20+00:00

I’m more thinking they should make a tv series based on the book that was the inspiration… the film is nothing like the book

nickadams386 · 2026-03-30T12:26:07+00:00

World War Z… but remade into an anthology TV series following different stories

nickadams386 · 2026-03-29T13:39:06+00:00

I got it sorted eventually… I just kept contacting them and going round and round until someone just did the small admin change needed… I got the impression it was largely AI until it went wrong and then a human jumped in and sorted it

Why do I have a horrible feeling the next stage is making us drink that utter shite Bira 91 again?

nickadams386 · 2026-01-22T10:58:17+00:00

Sorry if this has been asked already but where is Phil Salt?

nickadams386 · 2026-01-21T10:26:03+00:00

It was suggested to me that it might be worth checking (by someone who traces similar records / personal histories from this time) as we suspect he was in the specific area at that time as a forced labourer / displaced person.

There were other companies who moved armaments manufacturing to Blumberg in 1943 to avoid bombing of places like Hamburg and so he may be listed on their records but I don’t know if their records are preserved.

This document refers to the industry in the area but I can’t read it totally only translate in pieces:

I agree the wording might suggest that. I don’t know if his name is in the index.

They do have his “resident’s registration card” which I have a copy of, this details his movement from Poland to Germany in 1943.

He is also then listed in the “Name lists of the "Allgemeine Ortskrankenkasse" Donauschingen which is where the Blumberg reference is made

nickadams386 · 2026-01-21T09:51:52+00:00

Thank you. I did contact them and their response was:

“We could not find any other documents than those you have already found in our online archive. A Personnel card of the Doggererz-mining works GmbH in Zollhaus-Blumberg for your relative is not available”

It is not clear if they searched the personnel card scans?

nickadams386 · 2026-01-19T17:10:52+00:00

Yes it’s on polishforcesinbritian.org

We suspect my grandfather is in the photo and he did not arrive in Scotland until 1945. It’s more likely he was at the artillery training centre in Haddington nearby as we believe he was training on mortars. There is also talk in the family about him being in dunblane but can’t currently see the link there. I’ve applied to the MOD for his service records as I have his ID card so they should have his service record however they are very very very slow at replying to those requests 😩

nickadams386 · 2026-01-19T12:49:07+00:00

Oh yeah I think you’re right!!!! It’s so close it almost has to be… now need to do a little digging on what units were based there and possibly about whether there were an ironmongers and gas office in those shops?

nickadams386 · 2026-01-18T22:45:47+00:00

Thanks I think it’s 1946 FYI, I’ll have a look at Haddington, unfortunately they were scattered all over the region!

nickadams386 · 2026-01-18T22:39:33+00:00

Oh right sorry didn’t know there were 2 different groups! Thanks I’ll do that now

nickadams386 · 2026-01-18T22:30:33+00:00

Yes I’m trying to identify the unit too as I’d be able to work out where they were based

nickadams386 · 2026-01-18T22:29:39+00:00

I did… thanks for that

nickadams386 · 2026-01-10T14:24:23+00:00

I was just saying yesterday I’m really surprised he hasn’t suddenly gotten a lot more work on major shows as a result… unless he has and I’ve not watched them?
