My father was a POW in Stalag VII A from the time he was captured until the camp was liberated. He was captured by the Germans in the Battle of Mortain, August 7, 1944, while defending his position in St. Barthelemy, France. He told me he worked on the German railroad with the Dachau prisoners, that they had very little to eat and that he suffered from frostbite of his feet and severe stomach problems. He never told me much other than those details. My father died July 12, 1988. In his honor, I purchased a brick at the National D Day Museum in New Orleans, Louisiana.
