Balado Camp, Kinross, Scotland

[tiggr]

Hi, I am researching this time as my mum was sent here from Glasgow during the war and shared lots with the large number of people from Poland who were placed here. My sons friend is also a descendant of a Polish family and would like some information if we can find any. Is there anyone who was here and has any information or photographs? Does anyone have any news about Turfils house also? Thanks

Hi jurek (bassrock123). I am researching my father's history in Scotland. His name is Rudolf Pollok originally from Rybnik. He was stationed at Kinross and was I believe training in the Polish Signal Regiment. I believe we do have some photos from the camp. Do you know if there is any documentation or register of those Poles who were at the camp? My dad is still alive but very infirm. Simon
