Mstr Sgt. Wiliam Cannon "W C" Sargent
United States Army
from:Atlanta, Georgia
My father was a POW in Stalag 5A during World War II. He was an American from Atlanta, Georgia.
He passed away in 2001 but left me an audio tape of his experience during the War and as a POW at Stalag 5A ( He almost never openly discussed it).
I am now in the process of transcribing his words. I would like very much to see photos of the camp if any are available. His tapes describe in detail the bitter cold and lack of food. I will provide more info when the tapes are transcribed.
