I came across this article from the now defunct Sheffield Weekly Gazette dated Thursday 10th March 2005. It relates to the death of Hugh Dixon who died at the age of 84. In the article it refers to the fact that Hugh was the first prisoner of war to return home to Sheffield in 1945.
It is a harrowing story of Hugh's captivity at the hands of the Nazi's. There is an article that was written in the Sheffield Star dated 12th April 1945 that may furnish further information and so I have made a note of it for my next trip to the Local Studies Library
