Fede del Tenere / Faith of the Kept / La fe de los mantenidos



Ciao ancora, bei amici! Oggi una voce speciale su un luogo che ho visitato di recente. C'è una base militare vicino a dove vivo e che è stata lì per molti decenni. Nella Seconda Guerra Mondiale, una parte della base è stata usata per tenere prigionieri italiani di guerra. Catturato nei campi di battaglia dell'Europa e spedito a metà dell'America per essere tenuto nel mio stato dell'Indiana. Mentre furono imprigionati, un gruppo di loro chiese ai loro prigionieri se potessero costruire una cappella per adorare e pregare. Il comandante dell'esercito ha convenuto e i prigionieri italiani, utilizzando materiali rimasti da altri progetti, hanno costruito l'edificio che vedete in queste immagini. Pensare ai dolorosi desiderio di casa, alle preghiere per le loro famiglie un mondo lontano, ai motivi di comodità e di libertà, questo è davvero un posto che tiene tutte e tanto altro. Ora tutto il campo del carcere è andato, tranne che per questo solitario promemoria, un simbolo dell'umanità al suo meglio, un monumento per essere libero da nessuna parte dove sei.



Hello again, lovely friends!  Today a special entry about a place I visited recently.  There is an army base close to where I live and it has been there for many decades.  In World War Two, a portion of the base was used to keep Italian prisoners of war.  Captured on the battlefields of Europe and shipped over to the middle of America to be held in my state of Indiana.  While they were imprisoned, a group of the asked their captors if they could build a chapel to worship and pray in.  The army commander agreed and the Italian prisoners, using materials left over from other projects, constructed the building you see in these pictures.  To think of the mournful longings for home, the prayers for their families a world away, the pleas for comfort and freedom, this is indeed a place that holds all of those and so much more.  Now everything of the prison camp is gone, except for this lone reminder, a symbol of humanity at its best, a monument to being free no mater where you are.



Hola de nuevo, encantadores amigos! Hoy una entrada especial sobre un lugar que visité recientemente. Hay una base del ejército cerca de donde vivo y ha estado allí durante muchas décadas. En la Segunda Guerra Mundial, una porción de la base se utilizó para mantener prisioneros de guerra italianos. Capturado en los campos de batalla de Europa y enviado a la mitad de América que se celebrará en mi estado de Indiana. Mientras que fueron encarcelados, un grupo de los pedía a sus captores si podían construir una capilla para adorar y orar adentro. El comandante del ejército estuvo de acuerdo y los prisioneros italianos, usando materiales que sobraron de otros proyectos, construyeron el edificio que usted ve en estas fotos. Para pensar en los anhelos tristes de casa, las oraciones por sus familias un mundo de distancia, las súplicas para la comodidad y la libertad, este es, de hecho, un lugar que tiene todos esos y mucho más. Ahora todo lo del campamento de la prisión se ha ido, a excepción de este recordatorio solitario, un símbolo de la humanidad en su mejor momento, un monumento a ser libre no mater donde usted está.

Heart wrenching what they must have gone through. The cries, fear, longings for home and the work of their hands that still stands to this day. Great Entry!
