244361 Pvt. Theodore Tracey United States Army from:Binghamton, New York Theodore Tracey was captured by German soldiers somewhere in Germany. He had lost contact with his unit. Happening upon a farm house and hearing muffled voices from within Theodore approached the house. He then heard some laughing coming from inside. Thinking he had found friendlies he knocked on the door of the house. A German soldier opened the door saw the American uniform standing there. The German then said in very good English, "come on in the war is over for you". Ted was sent to Stalag-IV and nearly starved to death in the following months and years. He survived the war and repatriated home to Binghamton New York Please type your message:      We recommend you copy the text about this item and keep a copy on your own computer before pressing submit.
