Anaheim, California HOUTS LABORATORIES 407 West North Street, Anaheim Lieut. Alfred Mills, pilot of a P-38, came home last week and the story he had to tell is that of thousands of American men held prisoner in German prison camps. It's the story of hunger and cold, of forced marches and sickness, of bitterness and despair and of the great joy that came with liberation last April when American tanks and infantrymen brought freedom to the thousands of airmen at the Moosberg camp. He also told how the SS troops defended the great camp to its very fences and shot their own fellow guardsmen when they sought escape from the oncoming Americans. He told how the airmen, in their joy and hungry desperation, left the camp on liberation day and roamed the countryside looking for eggs and food—any kind of food that would ease the gnawing in their stomachs. Lieut. Mills crash landed in Belgium last September 3 after strafing a German truck convoy and though he managed to crawl out of the burning plane he sustained painful burns on his face and arms and legs. Making his way to a nearby farmhouse a kindly Belgian family offered him help but before he could be moved German troops picked him up. They dressed his wounds and threw him in a guardhouse and it was twelve days before he was taken to a hospital where he stayed for seven weeks. There he was cared for by English doctors who were captured at Dunkirk in the summer of 1940.

Story of hunger and cold, marches and sickness, mess and despair and joy that came with libust April when American infantrymen brought to the thousands of air-the Moosberg camp. From the hospital he was taken to Stalag Luft 3 where he was kept prisoner until the latter part of January. With the Russian forces drawing near the camp that was located in eastern Germany the hundreds of officer airmen were force marched to Moosberg. So weakened were they from hunger that many of them fell by the wayside during the 63 mile march in sub-zero weather. Residents Petition Against Lund Co.
