We had marbles sent from home. We'd play trains, do anything to pass the time.The Germans used to scratch their heads at us. An escape attempt ended in a rail carriage near the Italian border, after a fellow escapee was helped through a small window. He too was found 3 weeks later by the Italians and marched back to the camp. Near the end of the War Stalag 383 prisoners were taken past the muddy Danube River to Nuremburg where the German guards deserted."
