Volleyball Game at Rastatt
Description:
The ball is in play high above the net as American POW's enjoy a game of volleyball in the compound at Rastatt. The American YMCA "invented" basketball and volleyball to make better use of their gymnasiums in Association buildings. WPA Secretaries provided war prisoners with balls and nets to play volleyball in prison camps.
