In May 1945, as Germany surrendered and the war collapsed into rubble, thousands of German women serving as auxiliaries for the Wehrmacht and SS were captured and placed in U.S.-run POW camps. Terrified by years of propaganda, they expected cruelty, starvation, even death. Instead, they were met with something unthinkable: orderly barracks, medical care, and trays of food—sometimes with bread, coffee, potatoes… and bacon.
For women who had endured bombings, hunger, and lies, the sizzling strips of bacon were more than a meal. They were a shocking symbol of abundance, a surreal contrast to the ashes of the Reich, and a quiet assault on everything they had been taught to believe about the enemy.
