The purpose of this project is to collect all of the profiles of displaced persons or Holocaust Survivors who were residents of the Bocholt Displaced Persons Camp. This camp was located in Bocholt, Germany.
History of the camp
During the Second World War the city survived generally unscathed until an Allied bombing raid on 22 March 1945 which destroyed most of the city. The city was then captured by the British a week later on 28 March. The city was the site of the Stalag VI-F POW camp.
