Anderson was located in middle Georgia. What made this so horrible is that all water was provided by a stream that was routed through the center of the camp and the local residents made sure to defecate in it upstream. Because of that dystenary and other forms of disease flourished. Most of the men had no shoes and their only cover was whatever canvas they could salvage. Thousands of men died including the Polish warden who was hung after the war for war crimes.
