USAG BAVARIA - HOHENFELS, Germany -- Polish soldiers from 11 Lubuska Dywizja Kawalerii Pancernej (11th Armored Cavalry Division) pay honor to the memory of deceased Polish prisoners of war Feb. 5, 2025 at a historic cemetery in the training area of U.S. Army Garrison Bavaria - Hohenfels. There are no bodies in the cemetery – they were exhumed decades before – but the site endures as a remembrance of Stalag 383, where allied prisoners of war were interned during World War II. Polish prisoners comprised the majority of the camp population, and many remained after the camp’s liberation. (U.S. Army photo by Bryan Gatchell, USAG Bavaria Public Affairs
