Camp Michaux, was a hush hush POW camp during World War 2. It was so secret that even the locals didn't know exactly what sinister happenings were taking place here in the woods of south-central Pennsylvania. In its 30 months of service, thousands of German and Japanese officers were interrogated here by American military intelligence.
