There was one for German POWs outside of Lawrence KS. Ruins were still
in existance when I was there 83-89. Danforth Chapel, On the University
Grounds, was supposedly build by POW labor.

I got the feeling from what I had read about Axis POWs that they were
kept mostly in small groups (50-100), spread out throughout the
heartland. They provided farm labor.
