      The entire point of the camp was to house POW's with histories of breaking out. I suppose they wanted to prove that the camp couldn't be broken like the other ones. And they did punish people they caught, one dude kept getting thrown in solitary

      Western POWs were half-starved, though allowed to receive Red Cross parcels. Though better than how Soviet POWs were treated - especially in 1941 and the first half of 1942, many Soviet POWs in German hands were literally allowed to starve to death. Officers' camps like Sagan, the camp here, were marginally better than ones for enlisted men. Although it tended to be officers who tried to escape - enlisted men generally did not try.

It was a hot summer's day and they are stripped to the waist. They have fairly extensive tattoos on their bodies, which was an urban working class thing at the time, as well as something sailors did. Not the same thing as the "officer class".

    Some of the Luftwaffe camp guards have yellow collar patches (the most typical Luftwaffe colour on uniforms), others red. Not obvious why this is the case - red tended to be worn by Luftwaffe troops who manned anti-aircraft guns. Perhaps they were transferred from that.
