POWS act as their own censors says ex POW Keirn
Lt Col Richard Keirn a former Lorain Works employee told a Tampa TV audience that released POWs privately decide what they will say and follow senior officers guidance. He recalled being shot down in 1944 and held in a Nazi camp where conditions were humane. Keirn noted POWs would refuse repatriation if peace groups arranged it and praised the care during later years of captivity.
