Remembering Former Foes
[The Record - Nov. 15th, 2004]Kitchener, Ontario

They're stacked two to a grave. The simple headstones are inscribed with nothing but the names, ranks, dates of birth and death. Some have a blank space instead of a birth-date.
These are the final resting places of German prisoners of war who died in Canada during or shortly after the First and Second World Wars.
Some were as young as 19, others as old as 62.
There are 187 of them buried in Kitchener's Woodland Cemetery, and yesterday, they were remembered.
These are men who died far from their families, in a country that viewed them as enemies.
In a cemetery full of elaborate bouquets and granite monuments, the regularity of stone, lawn and shadow in their corner is interrupted only three times by flowers.
But yesterday, was Volkstrauertag. People's Mourning Day in Germany, and the almost forgotten soldiers were remembered as a group, along with all the dead from all wars, in the memorial service held by local German groups and the Germans Consulate in Toronto.
Hundreds of people, many speaking German among themselves, turned out on a sunny but chilly afternoon to stand in front of the single cross that represents the German prisoners.
Originally, scattered across the country, the POWs' remains were brought to Kitchener in 1970 so they would have people to care for their graves, said Deputy Consul General Ulrich Schmidt.
The Transylvania brass band played. The Concordia male and mixed choirs sang.
Even those who didn't understand the language could hear the grief in songs such as Ich hatt' einen Kameraded (I had a comrade).
But the music also carried with it a note of hope.
"War cemeteries are places to mourn and remember" Schmidt said. "At the same time they are memorials against war and for reconciliation and peace."
"I'm therefore grateful to see representatives of the armed forces, as well as Veterans of our two countries, present here today to symbolize that after a terrible past, Canadians and Germans are now allies and friends for over 50 years."
The POWs were shipped to Canada between 1940 and 1944.
They were sent by a Great Britain fearing a German invasion. By 1944, nearly 34,000 military prisoners were living in camps in Canada?.. in Medicine Hat, Alta., Gravenhurst, Ontario and other places, often remote and northern.
Some worked in lumber camps, others did agricultural work, and they were mostly treated in a civilized way, said Elora amateur historian Gottfried Geibel, whose father spent five years in the German army.
Butin camps were loyal Nazis mixed with reluctant conscripts, tensions arose.
Though most of the 187 buried in Kitchener died of disease or injury, a few met violent deaths.
In 1944, Dr. Karl Lehmann was found dead in a Medicine Hat POW camp.
The former language professor and outspoken anti-Nazi had been beaten to death and hanged by fellow prisoners, Geibel said.
Seven men were tried, and four were subsequently hanged in 1946. It was the largest mass hanging in Canada since the Riel rebellion.
Willi Mueller, Heinrich Busch, Bruno Perzonowsky and Walter Wolf now rest just a few rows from Lehmann, their graves indistinguishable from his except for the names and dates.
The men buried in Woodland weren't all angels.
But man, certainly, they were just young men sent out by their country to do their patriotic duty.
