POW Camps & County Locations...

Woods County, ALVA -- This camp held the Nazi and Nazi sympathizers that were known or segregated from the general prison populations of other camps. These were the "hard liners". It was located a mile south of Alva on the west side of highway 281, and security was much greater than at the other camps. The first prisoners arrived July 31, 1943. The capacity of this camp was 6,000, but the population grew to only about 4,850. The camp closed Nov. 11, 1945, and the land now is used for the airport and fairgrounds. Reports are 21 escapes from this camp, and 5 POWs died while interned there, including Emil Minotti, who was shot and killed while attempting an escape.

Another Member of the Class of '65 - Alva High...

"You were talking about shyness. Remember me? Cacoon is right. I think it was the times we lived in that added to a lot of us being shy. Now it is much better, since I got married and traveled all over these United States and Japan with my husband in the Air Force. Since none of us knew each other from Base to Base, we learned to open up and become one family quickly. This helped my 'eagle wings' spread and well as other stuff. Ha! Ha!

Another Beautiful Pug...

"What a cute picture! Poor Duchess looks so regal but also like she is really pooped! That is a great pose though! The tiny white triangle on Sadie's chest is cute and looks like that is the only other place she has any other color besides black. How unique! Glad they are doing so well together. Bet this is really going to be fun for Duchess and give her something to do while you are busy (don't know how she is going to juggle writing the ezine and taking care of Sadie and you guys - snicker). Sadie, of course, will have fun with anything around or moving for a few more months and then she'll 'get serious' and start acting like a lady (tee hee).
