Information. The camp was situated near Wolfsberg. My father Harry Little survived the sinking of Orama. He was a POW in Stalag 13. I'm happy to share any information I have, and very interested to hear from any survivors, etc. The website contains a picture of the camp ID of Tom Williams, a steward on Orama (see below). I have my father's camp ID. He was also a steward. I believe Tom Williams was in correspondence with my late mother. My father, Arthur Richardson, was a POW in Stalag 13, I believe from 1940 onwards. We have only just acquired his war medals from the MOD after all these years. He often speaks of some of his comrades during these difficult times. We would very much like to put him in touch with any fellow POW, as time is now running out for dad, as he is 84 Chris Tally Jack Henry Perks (Taffy) Welsh Guards. Caught in Bolougne May 28th 1940.
