Norwegian POWs in Germany
by JONATHAN on Mon 12 May 2008 - 18:58
I've just started researching the Norwegian Army Officers held as POWs in Germany during WW2. Does anybody have any details / names of the Officers held in Oflag 21c Schildberg etc ?
I know there are a couple of books on the subject in Norwegian but I can't find much info in English.
Can anybody help ?
Many thanks
Jonathan

There is a small booklet called "Norwegian officers in German captivity 1940-45 (and their prisoner mail)" published by Erik Lørdahl. Mainly about the mailsystem, but also some info about names, camps, why & how.....
This booklet is in English language only, and should be a very good starter ;-)

Dear Erik
Many thanks for your message - I actually have the book & in fact it's because I have a few POW Postal History items that started my interest in finding out more about the POWs & the Camps.
Are you also a member of the NWFPS ?
