No, I didn't mean the French and British camps, but the POW-camps in the 
USA, to which about four million german soldiers were brought.

(Most of the inmates of the 'Rheinwiesen'-camps.)

What was the fate of those POWs, the US-forces shipped to the sates?
(allegedly that were roughly 4 million soldiers)

The other allies had a lot of POWs, too, and about 4 million germans 
(combined in France, UK and USSR).

But my question was, what the US-forces did with the Germans.
