J. Frank Diggs

J. Frank Diggs (fl. mid 20th-century) was an American journalist. As a member of his country's armed forces, he had been held during World War II as a prisoner of war at Oflag 64 in southeastern Germany.

He was the author of The Welcome Swede, describing Henry Söderberg (d. 1998), a Swedish attorney[1] representing the YMCA, who visited the camps in that area (including Stalag Luft III, the camp of The Great Escape), delivering goods welcomed by the Allied POWs.
