The prisoners in Northern Colorado spent their days on a farm helping the local farmers. A typical day would find the prisoner being picked up by the farmer that he worked for. He would be provided a lunch and returned to the prison camp at the end of the day [6]. Often the midday meal was shared with the farmer’s family or a prison guard. Many friendships developed this way. There is even a story of a prisoner that would take lunch in town every day. He met a woman and they eventually married at the POW camp.
