dc.description.abstract |
"American Prisoners of the Luftwaffe: Realities and Images,"
provides readers with a comprehensive picture of the lives of
World War II American fliers held in German POW camps. The
material included in this work begins with some of the hair-raising
experiences that the fliers went through prior to capture
discussed as a means of dispelling the myth that all captured
American soldiers revealed only their name, rank and serial
number to their captors. This project focuses on the harsh
realities of camp life that these men endured. Images from
movies such as Stalag 17 and the Great Escape, and episodes of
Hogan's Heroes are used to reveal some of the fallacies and
realities that have become part of the American mythology
concerning the lives of Prisoners of War. |
