At that time, at the end of the war, German prisoners were held at the Nuremberg-Langwasser Prison. A group of Jewish men poisoned the bread that was eaten by these prisoners. The men, a few thousand of them, were reported to have been taken to local hospitals for treatment. I would like to find out if any of these prisoners died from the poisoning. I am hoping that someone would know what happened at the hospitals in Nuremberg or would have records from that point in time to determine whether any prisoners did die. Any information that you have about this would be appreciated. Hal Goldberg Laguna Woods, California hgqandqres@aol.com U.S.A.

Not too many of our young soldiers know the story about Merrell Bks. You are right about the SS Kaserne. I was stationed in the Nuernberg are twice. As a soldier 1973-77 and later as a civil servant (Liaison officer) 1991-94. The second time due to my job I was in contact with a lot of locals from whom I learned a lot of WWII history. about the Nuernberg area. The BA (Bavarian American hotel) acroos the main train station where soldiers and their families checked in was Hitler's hotel when he had his rallies. Enjoyed you story also. Adolf Hello Bill.

Anyway I was in the ALL BLACK 371 AIB, except for 10% WHITEOfficers. We were attached to the 2d Armored Cav, And in early 1952, the first WHITE enlisted Men (20% of the battalion were shipped in and 20 of the BLACK enlisted men were shipped out and a gradual integration took place. I believe that the 371 was the first unit of Bn size to be integrated and much to the surprise of many, a very peaceful event indeed. I was a platoon leader in C (2d Lt). Company and the other three platoon leaders were also WHITE. The CO was a 1st Lt from Philadelphia Pa, 1st Lt Cox from Ohio was EXO and cannot remember the name of the Administrative Warrant Officer and all three were BLACK. We had a great time especially when we went out on alert...I have never laughed so much in my 84 years and the beer was good and plentiful. We rode our half tracks all over West Germany. Would like to hear from anyone there at that time. Thanks PS (I enjoy all of your stories, Too) I was stationed in 1951-52 at what is now being called Merrell Barracks (I dont recall that we called it by that name, but the one we were in was trhe old German SS Barracks.
