Stalag Luft 1 -
(B24.net): Stalag Luft I was opened in Oct. 1942 as a British camp but when
the Red Cross visited the camp in Feb. 1943, two American noncom officers had
already arrived. By Jan. 1944, 507 American Air-Force officers were detained
there. The strength of the camp grew rapidly from this date, until April 1944
when the Red Cross reported 3,463 inmates. New compounds were opened and quickly
filled. Nearly 6000 POWs were crowded into the camp in Sept. 1944, and at the
time of the liberation of the camp 7717 Americans and 1,427 Britons were
returned to military control.
