Stark Decency – German Prisoners of War in a New England Village

By Allen V. Koop

Dr. Koop will speak on this little-known story about the friendships that formed between the prisoners at the POW camp and the guards and members of the town of Stark, New Hampshire, between 1943 and 1945. Amazingly, several of these prisoners-of-war returned to Stark in 1986 for a reunion with the guards and the townspeople of Stark.
