Detailed History

Dulag Luft, through which practically all Air Force personnel captured in German occupied Europe passed, was composed of three installations: the interrogation center at Oberusal; the hospital at Hohemark; and the transit camp ultimately Wetzlar.



Dulag Luft 12 was situated in Grosstychow, which today is named Tychowo and is in Poland. - See more at: http://www.wartimememoriesproject.com/ww2/pow/powcamp.php?pid=2141#stha…

I am Susan Thompson, Robert D Thompson's daughter.  I know through Leonard Lincoln, whom I have also added, that he and my father spent a short time here prior to Stalag Luft IV and finally Stalag Luft XI B after the Baatan Death March.
