I am trying to track down any information on the disposition or action by the 2nd Battalion Coldstream Guards near Furnes late May 1940. My father would (acting Sergeant Walter Spencer) have been part of this action and was captured somewhere in the area spending the next 4 years in Stalag 8B Lamsdorf. I have the telegram notification of missing in action and I have a typed history of his time in the Guards showing joining, promotions, capture, release and repatriation dates etc and I also have several photo's of him in this time. finally I have a 1939 roadmap where he detailed the route taken on the final march from Lamsdorf heading west during Jan - April 1945 and have traced another prisoners list of stops during the march which almost duplicates the map. So, I have plenty of info. on his years captive but what I am specifically interested in is any info. on where the guards were during 20th May - early June 1940. I have tracked down many bits of information but they are fairly unspecific (appreciating the chaos that must have reigned). I would be very grateful for any information.

Thanks
