Title 071_POW Camp Ogden High School Choir
Description A collection of photographs and oral history quotes that document the history of the Prisoner of War camp at Defense Depot Ogden that opened in 1943 and closed in 1946. The oral histories were conducted with widows of German and Italian POWs, former guards, and community members that worked with the POWs.
Image Captions The Defense Depot Ogden was then called the Utah General Supply Depot. They needed help, there was a lot of ladies working. They had lots of jobs for high school students during the summers . . . I do know that choirs from Ogden High School would go out and visit and make choir presentations. -Bud Elliott
