"...what happened to the women in the countries that were overrun by Hitler's army..."

"As an American soldier who understands German well enough to read your paper, I also read the article entitled `Chocolate Girls' written by a former soldier in the German Army.

I have been here for 11 months, and I am now waiting to marry an Austrian girl. During this time, neither I nor any one else has heard that this girl has been going out with another man. Sure, there are a lot of girls that are whores, as they say, but that doesn't mean that they all are.

The ex-soldier who condemned the girls who go out with Americans knows as well as I do what happened to the women in the countries that were overrun by Hitler's army. Is he trying to shift the entire responsibility from his gender to the other? Figures prove that more illegitimate children were born to French girls and German fathers (to say nothing of the other countries occupied by Germany) than from all other occupation armies put together."
