Описание: Discover the untold story of 371,683 German POWs who witnessed America's overwhelming industrial might during World War II, fundamentally transforming their worldview and shaping postwar German-American relations. This meticulously researched 16,000-word historical account chronicles how captured Afrika Korps veterans arriving at camps across 46 US states in 1943 encountered an industrial democracy that shattered Nazi propaganda through simple, undeniable reality—from mechanized farms producing unprecedented yields to factories operating around the clock with electricity that exceeded entire German cities. Through verified firsthand accounts and official records, explore how prisoners experienced American abundance, democratic values, and humane treatment that converted hardened Wehrmacht soldiers into advocates for democratic reconstruction, with many like Walter Hallstein later becoming architects of the European Union. The script reveals how exposure to American society's productive capacity, technological innovation, and civilian prosperity during captivity created unwitting ambassadors who would return to implement American agricultural methods, industrial techniques, and democratic principles in rebuilding West Germany, ultimately laying the foundation for the Atlantic alliance and the German economic miracle of the 1950s.
