There was a lot of activity in the station yard German military vehicles were coming and going and a contingent of unarmed Russian fatigue men were on parade.' A typically vivid passage reads: 'In the morning of the 24th April I heard chaps reporting prisoners passing through and our guards not interfering a lot of Indians were going through without any guards. Chaps with kit got up early because of being cold. I got up after seven and went outside and saw the Indians going through. A column of Russian prisoners appeared with guards and were halted just outside. The German guards were standing about in groups talking to each other and taking no notice of the prisoners some of whom were already making off. A man got up on a cart and addressed us he said he couldn't advise us to go he couldn't advise us to stay the German commandant had said that if we stayed he would do his best to obtain food for us there was a horse dying in the next village and he had the first refusal of it if it expired and we should have it.' The account ends on Wilmott's return: 'At London I bid my comrades of the last 2 years goodbye and got on a train at Paddington.
