Subject: Nazi spoils of war

Dear Lisa,
Here are photos of the Nazi materials my father brought home from World War II. 
 He was a navigator who bailed out of a B-17 bomber and was held for eleven 
months at Stalag Luft III, the same German POW camp where the “Great Escape” 
occurred.  In addition to the materials in the photos, I have a short  
narrative written by my father about his experiences, his Nazi prison camp 
registration card with photo where he is identified as a Jew (they told him 
that, as a Jew, he would be the first of the prisoners to be killed).  I also 
have snapshots taken of the prisoners in the POW camp taken with a smuggled-in 
camera.  My father assembled these with captions in a scrapbook.
Ideally, these materials would be kept together and displayed.  A condition of 
their accession would be that they would never be sold.  Thank you for your 
help!

Dear Lisa,
Here are photos of the Nazi materials my father brought home from 
World War II.  He was a navigator who bailed out of a B-17 bomber and 
was held for eleven months at Stalag Luft III, the same German POW 
camp where the “Great Escape” occurred.  In addition to the materials 
in the photos, I have a short  narrative written by my father about

where he is identified as a Jew (they told him that, as a Jew, he 
would be the first of the prisoners to be killed).  I also have

smuggled-in camera.  My father assembled these with captions in a 
scrapbook.
Ideally, these materials would be kept together and displayed.  A
