Camp Hearne WWII Historic Site and Exhibit – …preserving and teaching WWII history… Camp Hearne WWII Historic Site and Exhibit preserving and teaching WWII history Camp Hearne Story Camp Hearne was a WW II PrisonerofWar Camp located north of Hearne Texas on Highway 485 West. After the 194243 US troop build up and successes in North Africa and Italy the ships carrying our soldiers to the European theater returned to the US with a different cargo an estimated 432000 prisonersofwar. Hearne was chosen to host a POW base camp due to its flat terrain distance from the coastline railroad access sparse population and local need for farm laborers. Honoring the Geneva Conventions the US Army treated POWs well providing food shelter and clothing.
