Stalag III-D

Prisoners of Stalag III-D were also housed in a number of sub-camps (Zweiglager),^[1] designated Stalag III-D/Z:^[2]

• Falkensee
• Groß Schulzendorf, Zossen
• Wutzetz, Friesack (closed late 1943)
• Damm I, Friesack
• Damm II, Friesack (closed late 1943)
• Wustrau I, Neuruppin (closed late 1943)
• Wustrau II, Neuruppin
• Zietenhorst, near Wustrau (closed late 1943)
• Kirchhain/Niederlausitz (transferred from Stalag III-B late 1944)

Two further sub-camps; Stalag III-D/999 in Zehlendorf West, Berlin, and Stalag III-D/517 at Genshagen, Ludwigsfelde, were created in May–June 1943 as "Holiday Camps", offering better living conditions, and a steady diet of propaganda, in an attempt to persuade prisoners into joining the British Free Corps. The Germans particularly sought out former members and sympathizers of the British Union of Fascists, but the attempt was largely a failure with the unit never numbering more than about 30 men at any time. A small number of men from these camps also joined the staff of the Ministry of Propaganda, working for radio stations and magazines.^[3] A similar camp at Friesack, designated Stalag XX-A (301), was established to recruit Irishmen serving in the British Army.
