The Midwest Archeological Center conducted an archeological study of the
Prisoner-of-War Camp at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs in 1995. The camp
site was being impacted by the placement of military housing over much of
the camp area. The study was prepared for and funded by the Directorate of
Environmental Compliance and Management, Fort Carson, Cololrado.

I'd refer you to Arnold Krammer at Texas A&M's History Department.
Apparently a few years ago, an archaeology graduate student did some
excavations at a POW camp in Texas. The thesis is also in print and Dr.
Krammer has the ISBN information. Hope this helps.
