That's a vicious circle. They stole the Germans sauerkraut in the first place. That direct hit at the Bigos was no accident. That was revenge...  |
Hi Klaus,
Yes, it was ironic, but I had a reason...to finish this story like that... They were really shooting German POW's...
Around 35% of soldiers of II Polish Corps in Italy were ex Wehrmacht soldiers, they very often sorted out their personal grudges with some well known to them Unterofizziers by simply shooting them....
It was the time in summer 1944, when Warsaw was burning, Von dem Bach troops were destroying Polish capital. Every evening Polish soldiers were listening to London radio and learned what is happening in their country.
After this they committed atrocities.
And I believe that this should be disclosed. Poles were not saints!
No one was saint in this war, but as a Pole I want to set things straight.
We were killing Germans and Germans were killing us... or opposite...
We should say all this and finish this mess... And be Europeans.

P.S.
Sauerkraut was not stolen, Germans left it behind, because their truck run out of petrol.
At the end of the day who is responsible for this ???
British.
Yes! They were forced to work in German main synthetic petrol plant in ... Auschwitz branch Monowitz and they had, "not much enthusiasm for their work"...
WWII is a maze of topics. It will keep our laptops hot for many, many years!
