POW Photos

The following email was received in response to a query I sent to the National Archives:

Dear Mr. Blake:

I am afraid we do not have any photos of specific WWII POW's. We have general views of some POW camps being liberated, but there is little or no caption information. Those that do have captions do not list any of the POW's.

I did check our Army Air Corps personality index for the names below, but there were no listings for any of them. If you know the camps they were in, you may submit a request for a search for up to three specific items/subjects per month. Currently our searches require two to six weeks to answer. Be sure to include your complete mailing address on all requests.

Thank you,

Holly Reed

Still Picture Reference

I continue to search for POW photos of the 3 survivors of 42-7522, S/Sgt Wallace E. Kirschner, S/Sgt Donald L. Young and 1LT John D. Money (all 3 are now deceased).
