German Prison Camp (LOC)

  • Art Siegel said:
    Were the prisoners of the day gratified that they were thought of as picturesque and tractable? This picture ran in the Sunday Oregonian of July 2, 1916 with this caption:" German prison camps contain many Indian troops who have been captured in the fighting on the western front. They are picturesque and at the same time, tractable prisoners." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1916-07-02/ed-1/se...
