From mountainlion ........
I am trying to help a friend find out information on her father. He was a POW and the Russians took the camp prisoners and they were never heard form again. Three men ducked out on the Russians and made it home. Her father was one. Does anyone have any sources for me to check more on this?
HiJInx....do you have any advice/help for mountainlion? Anywhere to steer him?
ConorMacNessa...any ideas?

WWII Vet - try the National Archives for his service record. Many of the WWII records were lost due to fire, but it's worth a shot.

Just did a quick Google search on “escape from Russian POW Camps WW2” and got a lot of hits. Quite a bit to wade through, but you may find some threads to do additional searches on.
