| Sandbostel was a SS concentration camp. During winter 1945-46 5th Seaforths were guards there. German POWs were kept there for screening etc. My Father with 5th Camerons at Westertimke would send all the SS and hard and fast Nazis to the Seaforths at Sandbostel to ("bring them into line") which effectively meant giving them a hard time.
