Women at War

Considered too old to be a war correspondent during World War I, photographer Horace Nicholls aimed his camera lens on the homefront capturing the many contributions of the women who took over the workforce - including the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC)

dancarkner, to NewOrleans

Wow. mentioned on FB by a friend in who lived his who 6 decades of life in the South and never heard of this until recently. Apparently it's downplayed or pretty much forgotten locally. A WWII American internment camp for Germans captured in Latin America, including not only Nazis but anti-Nazis and German Jews.

dancarkner,

Similar to a Dutch internment camp in Surinam I wrote this article for a couple years ago. Likewise there Germans were interned because of their citizenship (basically, those who happened to be nearby when the war broke out; sailors, missionaries, random people). It included some known Nazi sympathizers but also non-Nazis or anti-Nazis. I don't believe it had any German-Jewish internees in that case.
