Sgts Danny Feasey and James Hood MM 16 DLI
I've now added several pages telling the fascinating story of Sgts Danny Feasey and James Hood MM. Both were ex Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment NCOs, who were with the 16th DLI from 1940.
Both were captured at Sedjenane in February 1943. They escaped while en route from Camp PG 82 to Germany. Feasey was later recaptured. Hood eventually regained Allied lines and was awarded the MM. They did not see each other again until 1987 and the new pages also include some 1987 newspaper coverage of their reunion. The item begins on this page:
