Hi Steve
Greetings from Canada. I don't know what I
am really seeking, but I think you can help
me.
My father was
in the German Air Force, was shot and
captured by the American army and spent the
rest of WWII in Camp Forrest in Tennessee. I
believe he was returned to France after the
war and put in a work gang for
reconstruction efforts. He had fond memories
and stories of his time in the camp and
spoke very respectfully of his keepers
through many stories and recollections of
that experience. But of course I wonder what
he did not tell...
I plan to come to Tullahoma next week for a
motorcycle trip and to try and close some
demons and doors. I am looking to see
anything that still exists about the camp.
My brother was once there and said there is
some plaque on the side of the road and
references or records in the local
libraries.
Any and all info or advice is very well
received.
