Historian William Hanna presents "The WWII POW Experience at Camp Myles Standish"
William Hanna will join the historical society on Tuesday to discuss "The World War II Prisoner of War Experience at Camp Myles Standish."
Hanna will share his research on the massive military site that was Camp Myles Standish in Taunton. More than 1,500,000 American soldiers
passed through the camp during World War II on their way to Europe, and thousands of German and Italian soldiers were detained at the
camp during the war. Hanna plans to relay details of prisoner camp life during these years noting "The prisoner of war aspect has been less
well investigated so I am going to try to take care of that."
Please consider joining us on the 26th in the Community Room.
