Percy Chafer, a 104-year-old WWII veteran, recently uncovered the fate of his cousin Fred Stredder, who went missing during the war. The revelation came through documents from The National Archives that detailed Fred’s experiences as a prisoner of war. The cousins serendipitously met in Cairo before their deployment, an encounter Percy cherishes. Jacqueline Astell, Fred’s daughter, discovered her father’s hidden stories, including a daring escape disguised as an Italian fisherman. This Remembrance Sunday, the family hopes to inspire others to share their own stories and memories of war.
