Canadian soliders, Walcheren Island

from Provincial Archives of Alberta

    Approximate location is 51.440° N, 3.583° E, looking to the west. The windmill is the Oranjemolen in Vlissingen, meaning this picture was taken at Uncle Beach, the Allied landing area in Vlissingen.

German POWs

    Pretty miserable fate being a pow but at least for this lot much better than being captured by the Red Army.
  • Provincial Archives of Alberta said:
    Most certainly! Many German POWs were actually held at camps here in Alberta, where it can get as cold (sometimes colder) as Siberia, but their treatment here was certainly better than what they would've found in Russia.
