HOLZMINDEN INTERNEE LIST (Sept 1917 – Dec 1918) Updated: 29 March 2013 DISCLAIMER: This is a partial list, as the exact number of POWs is unknown due to Holzminden POW camp’s transient population – as no definitive records still remain, the exact numbers are impossible to ascertain. Some POWs were incarcerated briefly, while others from its opening. This list has been compiled in good faith and while every effort has been made to confirm details, any errors or omissions are unintentional. NOTES: The details below denote service and rank at time of Holzminden incarceration, although some individuals may have transferred from other services prior, and also may have gone on to promotion after the war. AGE 1918 states age at the time of repatriation from Holzminden in December 1918. Some POWs were captured as members of the Royal Flying Corps, but were repatriated after the service’s conversion to the Royal Air Force in April 1918.
