Add to ORKGThis is an oral history interview with World War II prisoner of war Anthony Acevedo. Acevedo was a medic in the 70th Infantry Division, captured at the Battle of the Bulge. He was sent first to Stalag IX B, was interrogated there, and was then sent to Berga along with 350 other American POWs. Acevedo describes the incident that, in his opinion, led to this: while a teenager in Mexico, he heard a radio message about German spies, which he reported to his father, a public official. He continued to work as a medic while in Berga, keeping records and trying to help his fellow prisoners. They left Berga on a death march, and were eventually liberated by the American army
