Gulag Study Support Documents Database
The Defense Prisoner of War/Missing
Personnel Office, Joint Commission Support Directorate researchers
have combed U.S. diplomatic and military archives to collect
as many contemporaneous reports of American servicemen in
the Soviet Gulag as possible. These include numerous accounts
of U.S. POWs reportedly shipped into the former Soviet Union
as well as reported sightings of missing servicemen observed
at specific prison camps and other former Soviet detention
facilities.
The documents contained in the Gulag Study Support Document
Database are a compilation of these declassified U.S. government
documents that provide DPMO/JCSD researchers with key information
to support and focus their on-the-ground research in the
States of the former Soviet Union. The database contains
55 documents, currently dated from 1947 to 1960. New documents
are added as they are received and processed.
