    POW wanted poster

    Hello Had this stuck in a book for years. I think this is real. The back has Official Business Federal Bureau of Investigations and has a list of FBI offices, locations and phone numbers.

        Very nice poster, wonder if he was on the run for those three months between escape and his death, even with him speaking English thats quite a feat

        Cheers

            Yes, FBI Wanted posters are cool! I've had a couple of them in my collection for several decades, both from early 1945: a Heer sgt who escaped from a camp in Massachusetts and a Luftwaffe lt who escaped from a camp in Gravenhurst, Ontario, Canada. And I too have wondered what happened to both of these guys since their escapes.

              Fascinating.

              Was the FBI the agency that ordinarily pursued fugitive POWs? I would have assumed the Army took care of that (perhaps with the cooperation of local law enforcemnt offices).
