Hi everybody. Just wanted to let you know about two upcoming events. Monday, April 27th at 7 p.m. I’ll be speaking at the Sunset Hills Historical Society. All are welcome to join. The event is at the Sunset Hills Community Center, 3915 South Lindbergh Boulevard in Sunset Hills, MO 63127.

Monday, May 18th is a noon program with the Lutheran Senior Services Auxiliary. This event is a luncheon and requires preregistration.

In these programs you get a fascinating overview of the little-known story of the 15,000 German and Italian prisoners-of-war who were held in more than two dozen camps located across Missouri. Stories from those involved plus dozens of maps, photos and illustrations help bring this history to life.
