Fighting lice was the scourge of all POW\u27s during World War I, whether in a prison camp or in the trenches. French, Russian, and Belgian prisoners have set their mattresses in the sun to air out their bedding to help eliminate the infestation. Some prisoners are reading, playing board games, or repairing their uniforms in front of their barracks at Nuernberg. Others have taken the opportunity to wash their clothing and hang them out to dry by the building.https://scholarworks.wmich.edu/wwi_pow_camps/1586/thumbnail.jp
