I've read that there were camps for Germans in America similar to the Japanese internment camps, however they were located in the Midwest, were spread out in several states and had at most approximately 10,000 internees. These are not the German POW camps that were also stateside in the Midwest and the South. Anyone else know of the existence of these facilities?
