There was one in Kaplan.. The remnants of the camp buildings were on the street behind my house. As a kid we would play on the old beams that made up the flooring structure. The POWs would work in the rice fields in the surrounding area. My grandfather told me that they integrated very well with the locals.

I think there is an exhibit on the POWs in the Kaplan museum.

I worked with a guy about 20 years ago that had to fly over the area from Holly Beach to Lake Charles. He would find the bodies by looking for red spots in the marsh...bodies had turned red from bloating and the sun. He would radio in locations so rescue could find bodies....
