Missouri Ex-Prisoners of War Oral History Project
Details
- Abstract / Summary
- The Missouri Ex-POWs Oral History Project is conducted by the State Historical Society of Missouri and the Western Historical Manuscript Collection-Columbia. The purpose of this ongoing project is to record, preserve, and honor the personal histories of Missouri's Ex-Prisoners of War. The initial phase of the project concentrated on members of the American Ex-Prisoners of War, Heart of America Chapter based in Kansas City, Missouri. The American Ex-Prisoners of War (AX-POW) is a national, non-profit organization of American citizens who were captured by the enemy. Researchers will note that some of the interviewees, although members of the Missouri-based chapter, resided in Kansas.
