2nd Lieutenant Robert T. Booth served in the United States (U.S.) Army during World War II (WW II). He received his commission on 3 June 1944 at the Officer Candidate School at Fort Sill. Booth was assigned to B Battery, 912th Field Artillery Battalion, 87th Infantry Division as a forward observer. He arrived in France in December 1944, and fought in the Saar Valley with the 347th Infantry Regiment, before the Battle of the Bulge. On 6 January 1945 he and a forward observation team were sent to provide artillery support for C Company, 345th Infantry Regiment in Bonnerue, Belgium. They held their position through two days of German attacks, earning Booth the Silver Star Medal for his actions. On 8 January 1945, he and his unit surrendered. Booth was transported to Stalag XIIA at Limburg, Germany, then to Stalag XIIIC at Hammelburg on 20 March 1945. On 27 March 1945 a 4th Armored Division task force attempted to liberate the Hammelburg Prisoner of War (POW) camp. Booth chose to escape the camp on foot during the confusion. He was recaptured and eventually marched to Stalag VIIA at Moosburg. On 29 April 1945, the camp was liberated. After Germany surrendered, he was flown to U.S. Army camps in France. On 31 May 1945 he boarded a ship to the U.S.

Title: Robert T. Booth papers, Jun 1996.

General description of the collection: The Robert T. Booth papers consist of his 1996 memoir, "The personal experiences of Robert T. Booth who was a prisoner of war in Belgium and Germany January-May 1945." In his memoir, Booth describes the events leading to his surrender to German forces on 8 January 1945. He describes the importance of food to POWs, and credits German black bread and Red Cross food packages with his survival. He also describes the sickness and lice among the POWs, the friendships that he made, and his brief interrogation. Booth compares the conditions at the different German POW camps where he was housed. He found that the better camps had strong leadership among the POWs. Stalag XIIIC benefited from the leadership of U.S. Army Colonel Paul Goode. Booth notes the positive changes in the POW's lives during April 1945, as food packages arrived more regularly and the marches to more distant camps ceased.
