Here are the last of the POW photos I have. I believe these also were taken in Egypt in '47.

Location

W. Petz,
The location of your photo is the same as my POW RKT photo post.
It is Mulsanne / Le Mans in France. Even some of the persons in the photo are the same e.g. the KM Officer.

Great pics thanks for posting.

I can't help but wonder as to what happened to all the tunics,headgear,awards,kit,etc that these prisoners are wearing.

The uniforms and caps were probably destroyed due to lice etc which was probably rampant in those POW camps, I doubt you would be taking a shower on a daily basis. As far as the Russian POW's they were probably buried in them.
