The camp at Huntsdale PA was on what is now the C H Masland estate and has another name which I will post when I remember it. This camp was relatively secret during the war, there is little know about it by the locals. It is not far from Camp Michaux but was not a part of it. The information I have on this is that it was used to house high ranking prisoners in relative comfort to attempt to get information from them. I have information that there was also a Camp Carlisle but I believe at this time that this was another name for this camp just as ichaux was also referred to as Camp Pine Grove Furnace. There is an entry on the Carlisle Barracks web site that indicates a report - Data card & news clippings on WWII Carlisle POW Camp, 1944 - on prisoners - they may have been housed at Huntsdale. |
