Title A name given to the resource Visit Report from War Department to Camp Ashburn (POW Camp) Description An account of the resource TRANSCRIPTION BELOW Report 42 of Visit to Prisoner of War Camp, Ashburn, Georgia April 25, 1945 Changes in U.S. Staff: Lt. Boylan was replaced by Lt. Hoiton, as compound officer. Changes in buildings and grounds: Great improvement in the grounds, which have been landscaped; tents have small gardens around them. Furniture was built for most of them. A small day-room is now available. The chapel is started and will be finished within a month. Current activities: Movies and gramo-concerts, in the open. The "cultural evenings", led by the German doctor, have now ceased, but may be resumed in a later part of the year. Church services are still poorly attended; a new chaplain, German prisoner of war, was just installed, and may be a helpful element in camp.
