Hello Dave,
Not too many photos around showing de-Nazified awards and yes I did post some on this thread.
May10 - POW Camp 103 Great Britain O.gefr. Ludwig Reuber. Interesting in that some of the POW's have sewn insignia on British Battle Dress. One POW is wearing a AfrikaKorps CT.

Kevin,
Have you searched the websites for information on POW Camps? I don't recall any photos of Pine Camp NY on my thread and I also did a search with no results.
Here is a link to Fort Drum that has some information on Pine Camp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Drum there is a lot more information out there so you really need to do a search of the web.....just tap it out on your keyboard.

Kevin,
Couldn't the Ft Drum Museum tap into the National Archives where there is allot of photos available to museums. One seller on ebay has done so and sells some really nice pics...it just takes some time and effort to search. I also gather that Pine Camp wasn't a major POW Camp and well known unlike some of the bigger camps down in Texas & Lousiana that housed many POW's captured in Africa.
May10 - HG DAK POW #1
