Hi Brian,
The hard core Germans were brought to Fort Drum, NY.  Many of these
soldiers and officers were told that the city of New York had been
destroyed.  They, as captives, were very disapointed to find that their
government had deceived them.  They were disenchanted.  Four graves mark
the western end of the Fort Drum reservation.  They are four Germans and
one Italian.  They all died within six months of each other.  They were
in captivity for over three years.
