American Civil War scholars would argue that Andersonville was one of the most notoriously horrific prisoner of war camps during the war. Starvation, disease, limited shelter - for those Northern soldiers sent to this camp, survival was a struggle. The commander of the camp was convicted and executed for war crimes after the war. #HighwayToHell #MarchIntoThe70s
BTW...Elmira was the equivalent for Confederate soldiers.
