POWs Revisit Allied Ties on Anniversary of Papago Escape
Dietrich and Ingrid Hirschberg, plus Herb Wolters and Hans Poethig, attend a POW reunion in Phoenix after a visit to Orchard Park. Alfred Dietrich, freed from Essen in 1947, reflects on his long absence since 1942 and cherishes renewed friendship forged in hardship. Jurgen Wattenberg, leader of the 1944 Papago tunnel escape, cannot travel due to age.
