Introduction

prisoners of war

A postcard or a letter was the only link between a prisoner of war and his relatives at home and in the case of Allied prisoners, the frequency with which they were allowed to send mail home depended on which camp a man was in. Some men complained of only being allowed to send mail home once or twice a month, while others in different camps were allowed to send a letter about twice a week.
