A POW Journal from WW II

This web site is a representation of my father’s the time served as a P.O.W. in World War II.

 

My dad, Marion Wright Hazard, was shot down in a B-17 over the Adriatic Sea, near Verona, Italy on February 24, 1944. This aircraft was in the 301st Bomb Group.

 

Several years after his death, a descendant of one of his campmates found this journal and contacted my family and sent this journal to my family. He had left it behind on the day they were liberated.

 

The book is a collaboration of my dad and his campmates. All images are untouched and unaltered. The books were sent to British POWs. My dad made a trade for the book with a fellow POW. The cost of that trade is detailed early on in the book.

 

 

 

 

In the journal, Dad dedicated it to those who lost their lives on 42-31872. This web site is dedicated to the memory of my father and to every man and woman who has served our country in the armed forces, as well as all teachers and police officers.
