War Correspondent’s Notebook on Elbe Camp Liberation
A veteran correspondent recalls Mounted Cossacks freeing 2600 Americans at a Nazi camp near the Elbe. Capt Lyle A. Silvernail reports the Cossacks rode up, tore down fences, and cleared the camp while American and Polish prisoners helped. Russians supplied food and maps, but fourteen Americans died the prior night in a Soviet-German clash. Silvernail criticizes German treatment of prisoners and notes his own illness from tainted water as he plans further actions.
