List of World War II prisoner-of-war camps in the United States
In the United States at the end of World War II, there were prisoner-of-war camps, including 175 Branch Camps serving 511 Area Camps containing over 425,000 prisoners of war. The camps were located all over the US but were mostly in the South because of the higher expense of heating the barracks in other areas. Eventually, every state had at least one POW camp. Some of the camps had to be designated "segregation camps" and used to separate the Nazi "true believers" from the rest of the prisoners, whom they terrorized and even killed for being friendly with their American captors. A number of Italian POWs, pledged to help the United States. About 90% of Italian POWs volunteered for Italian Service Units. Due to labor shortage, Italian Service Units helped on Army depots, arsenals, farms and hospitals there they volunteered, they received better housing, than the standard POW camp, uniforms and pay.
At its peak in May 1945, a total of 425,871 POWs were held in the US. This included 371,683 Germans, 50,273 Italians, and 3,915 Japanese.
