Скачать или смотреть German POWs Couldn’t Believe Writing Letters Freely Home From America

During World War II, thousands of German POWs were shipped to America. What shocked them most wasn’t the food or barracks—but the freedom to write letters home. In this documentary-style story, we explore how prisoners, expecting cruelty, instead found a lifeline through the Red Cross mail system. Families in bombed-out Germany received words of survival, hope, and grief across the Atlantic. For many POWs, these letters became the most humane experience of captivity, a memory they carried for decades.
