Nazi Chow

That day they started feeding us. The Germans learned that day that the G. I. could still outsmart them. The fellows were lined up at one corner of a building and were given a seventh of a loaf of bread and one-seventh of a number three can of fat "bully beef" each. A number of them pushed around the building and back in line until the Kraut had to make extra trips for food. I got my first ration about 3:45 p.m. We were then marched to the box cars and started on our ride to Bad Orb.
