Cpl. Glenn Lewis Chambers
United States Army 335 Division 84th Infantry
from:California
This POW is my Great Uncle Glenn L Chambers. He was on the Siegfried line when they were captured on November 29th, 1944. They were taken to POW camp 11B, which was a British camp and then on to Stalag 2A, Neubrandenburg. He ended up being used as slave labor on the German railroad. They were liberated in May, I think, of 1945.
He is 94 years old and as I am writing this, he is on hospice care. His story is available in the library of Congress under the Veterans History Project, American Folklife Center. Would love to hear from anyone with similar stories or even possible connections to My Great Uncle or his unit.
