Like some 15,000 other Canadians, Smythe, Lamontagne, and MacMillan experienced the bewilderment that accompanied the moment of capture, the humiliation of being completely in the captor's power, and the sense of stagnating in a backwater while the rest of the world moved forward."Prisoners of warCanadaHistory20th centuryWar (International law)History20th centuryInternment campsHistory20th centuryPrisoners of warHistoryWar (International law)HistoryInternment campsHistory940.3/17Vance Jonathan F(Jonathan Franklin William),1963-907363MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791463603321Objects of concern3703513UNINA
