Hi Peter,
Welcome to the group.? Thanks for posting the link and encouraging your friend John to submit some photos.? My grandfather, Stanislaw Rzepka, was at Penley with I believe the stores dept.? He left approx. 1949 to go to Chicago.? I love seeing photos of the resettlement camp as it gives me a glimpse into what life would have been like for him.
Thanks

I just bought: Deportation and Exile: Poles in the Soviet Union, 1939-48 (Studies in Russia and East Europe)?by Keith Sword, from shipping from the UK. It is a former Library book. Shows definite wear,?and perhaps considerable marking on inside. It set me back about $70 with shipping and I should have it in about 10 days.
