Papa

Holli is doing a school project on global conflict. She had done a presentation on Italian Internment during the Second World War

Hollis Papa, my father in law, was interned at the age of 19 for 5 years on the Isle of Man from 1940 to 45. I took this picture for the presentation from a book which shows him in a rare picture from the camp. He is 4th from right back row in one of the football teams. The picture disguises the fact conditions were tragic, Dante lost his brother and Father on the Arandora Star

He unfortunately died before I met him
