WWII POW (Hans Henle) - Alva Camp

We had an interesting email this week from someone who had met in 1978-79 with a former Prisoner of war by the name of Hans Henle, who was a POW in the Alva Camp. David Earl goes says, "During 1978,79 I met a former POW from the Alva camp. His name is Hans Henle. He was representing a German firm during the construction of the Chesterfield Cylinder plant in Enid." Does anyone else out there remember Hans Henle?

David goes on to state, "Subsequently, he was a guest in my home for dinner a few times. Later I went to the Manesmann De Magmeer plant in Monchen Gladdbach, Germany. While there my wife and I were guests in his home for dinner. It was very interesting to meet some one who was a POW. I moved to Alva after the war so have no direct memories of that period."   |  View or Add Comments (1 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
