POW camp 412 in Miramas - France

[archeofred]

Hello,

I am a french archaeologist and I am studying an american prisoners of war camp in Miramas, in the South of France, near Marseilles (POW enclosure #412). To understand the few remains we discovered during excavations, I need documents on Miramas camps like photos, diaries or testimonies. Is someone can help me ?
Thank you very much

Here is a link to a paper recently written on the excavations conducted on the camp : http://1rca1bz7z8.1fichier.com/

I couldn't download the link. Do you mean an American run POW Camp for Germans? If so you might want to take a look at my POW thread as I have posted quite a few POW Camp photos but not sure if there were many from that camp.

Archeofred,

There are many photos that have mysteriously disappeared from almost all of my threads. I believe this happens when the website goes through updates which results in photos dropping off into never...neverland.

I will do a search through several boxes of POW photos that I have in my archives upon my return from the SOS next week.
