Did you know there were actual POW camps over in the Bitteroot Valley during the 2nd world war? We'll find out more tonight (Tuesday) during Montana History up at the Heritage Center when we delve into out new read, "From Battlefields To Beet Fields-A Story of World War 11-POW Camps in the Bitteroot." Bitteroot Valley native & Montana author L. Allen "Larry" Strate did intensive research into this compelling page turning tome of the almost-forgotten World War !! POW camps in the Bitteroot. I'm looking forward to reading & sharing more Montana History at 6 o'clock SHARP this evening at Shelby's Marias Heritage Center.
