[at-l] Camp Michaux Program at Amelia Givin Library



The forests around Millinocket Maine were harvested during World War II by German Prisoners of War from a prison camp in Seeboomook Township, a few miles north of the trail crossing at Abol Bridge. The Army assigned several hundred prisoners to Great Northern Paper Co. of Millinocket because the company had trouble finding laborers to supply its mills with pulp wood.
