Wartime Kriegy Photos

 

Most of these group photos were taken at Oflag 64 in mid-January 1944 and were obtained from Bill Cory, “Brad” Bradford, Bel Smith, Javier Serda, Helen Chappell, Anne Kreutzer, Tom Detmers, Ann Hart-Otterbein, Victoria Herring, Connie Welch, Tony B. Lumpkin III, Herm Littman, and John R. Rodgers, Sr. The American and International Red Cross provided the uniforms and also took most of the in-camp photos.  Groupings varied, some by state, some by unit, some by rank, and some by mess.  Many of the photos are stamped on the back “Lichtbild geprüft Oflag 64” which we are told means “Photograph inspected, Oflag 64”.  If you can fill in missing names, please click here to email us.
