Flemish Barracks at Goettingen

Notes:

The Flemish prisoners of war were Dutch-speaking soldiers and they were assigned to this barrack at Goettingen. Their standard of living was not as comfortable as a non-commissioned officer or officer, but they had better accommodations in relation to enlisted troops in other prison camps. Goettingen was a propaganda camp for Flemish POW's.
