Hello Mary and Christoph!
Thank You Both so much for the recent information!
The Cemetery my Dad created or maybe someone else did, and when I find the map I will know. I have found at Beltsville Archives records for 2 deceased Vets that my Dad's name was connected to. That does not prove he buried them however, but I would assume that he did.
One was Sgt. Edward G. Morlack and the document shows at Lazarette, Sieburg, Germany, o/a 26 Feb. '45 and other document shows Feb. 4 and that he was captured in Gerolstein.
And the other was Lt. Phillip Dryden and the document shows about March 1, 1945 Sieburg Lazarette, Germany. Somewhere else in the document it shows that Dryden was a pilot of a B-26 aircraft and was shot down on 23 Dec. 1944 at Siegburg, Germay.
These 2 men I did a little research on. Never got to finish it.
My Dad always referred to where he was as Stalag 6G. He also refers in a letter home that he had been moved to a Military Hospital. I forget exactly how he described it and do not dare leave the website for fear I will lose what I have written.
Anyhow, in my research it became obvious that where he was was not Stalag 6 G. Infact, a gentleman that was Head of the Ex POW organization (after my Dad had died), I believe his name was Galanti (but again must check my records) had in his bio that he was at Stalag 6G. I could not believe it. Then I called him and discovered that he was in a different Camp and that Camp had a fire and they all had to move on. I sent him a copy of a Red Cross map of the Camps that Mom had gotten from back then. He had not seen one.
I am rushing around to leave, maybe by Fri. If I can, I want to write a couple of more things today, but do not want to lose this one.
It is wonderful to know you all!
