ALMOST ALL OF THEM OFFICERS.
The small P.O.W. camp ID photographs are 39mm x 51mm
Oflag VIII-F was a World War II German POW camps for officers located in Wahlstatt, now Legnickie Pole in Silesia (Poland) and Mährisch-Trübau, now Moravská Třebová in
north-central Czech Republic.
All the photos are annotated in pencil on the back,
stating the name of each P.O.W.
I only indicated the rank if I could physically see the
rank epaulettes in the pics.
There could be a few mistakes with the names & surnames-
In some instances it was dificult to decypher the handwritten names.

I shall publish more & update.
