At some point he was in PG 66 Capua.
The records for POW Italy are very flawed. PG 82 was near Lanterina and he could have also been in this Camp.
Some Prisoners of the Italians were in as many as four Camps in a short period of time.

Hello. I am new to the site.  I was searching for information about my great uncle Frank Schaaf.  I believe he was a P.O.W. at Stalag 8 in January of 1944 or 1945.  Correspondence states that he was declared missing in action in France and I was looking for any information I can find about him.  He died before I was born and I would like know about his war experience.   Thanks.
