Al,

We addressed this subject in two different projects, one for the BRAC closure
of Defense Depot Ogden, and at Fort Douglas (decommissioned in 1993).  We
have reports related.  The POW camps that these facilities included both Italian
and German POWs.

There is also a book out on POW camps in Utah (at least concerning German
POWs):

Powell, Allen Kent, Splinters of a Nation: German Prisoners of War in Utah
University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City, 1989.
