My father-in-law has always been reluctant to talk about his wartime
service. This was due to the fact that he was a POW camp guard, and in his
mind not a worthy contribution to the war effort.
He's never really opened up about it at length, but we know that he guarded
German prisoners
My FIL has said that while he was a guard, it was sort of a joke in the sense
that none of these guys were a threat of any sort and they got along well. They
knew they had it good from a POW standpoint compared to how bad it could be.
From the few stories he told, they weren't even secured at
Peas on Earth to Men of Good Will!
