I think we know your grandfather was captured at Stalingrad, you have mentioned it just a couple of posts above

I assume that he made it out alive and wasn't one of those who 'disappeared' in the gulags after the war?

OOps sorry about that, sorry that I posted that over again.

Yes he did make it out in 1946 actually. He was a doctor and for some reason they let him go.
