Interlude in Umbarger

- Italian POWs and a Texas Church

About Interlude in Umbarger

Interned in a camp in the Texas panhandle, more than 3,000 Italian POWs spent the last years of World War II an ocean away from their family and friends. A handful of men in camp were artists. In exchange for a home-cooked, the artists decorated the local church with murals. This story of courage and kindliness is as enduring as the artwork that still graces the church in a tiny Texas town.
