POW Camps in South Dakota |
This list of Prisoner of War Camps, Italian Service Unit Camps, and Prisoner of War Hospitals is based on weekly reports located on NARA microfilm #66-538 (population lists June 1942-June 1946). Additional locations based on newspapers, interviews, and other NARA records (at College Park and Regional Archives).
The POW Camps in South Dakota during World War II included:
Black Hills Ordnance Depot, Igloo, Fall River County, SD (base camp)
There were 1 base camp, and 6 branch camps in SD. More information in my latest book titled Prisoner of War Camps Across America and is available in Kindle format on Amazon and in Nook format on Barnes and Noble.
