Is there a list available of prisoners held in Italian POW camps? I am looking for the location of the camp my Grandfather was held at 1942-44. He was in the 24th Battalion of the 2nd NZEF, 8th Army. Cheers!!

Here are two places you should look: The official New Zealand history volume on POWs: http://www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-WH2Pris.html And the official study on POWs in Italy, which is on this web page: http://www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-WH2-1Epi.html That ought to cover it well!
