Nazi POWs in the Tar Heel State, 1942-1946
Did you know North Carolina was home to more than 10,000 German prisoners of war during World War II? From arrival, to escapes and repatriation, the story told reveals the diversity of the men captured in German uniform. Billinger argues that the wartime experiences of the POWs and citizens of North Carolina revealed to both sides that enemies are human, uniforms can conceal diversity, and wartime enemies can become lifelong friends.
