If you haven’t read D-Day and Citizen Soldiers by Stephen Ambrose, you must. His career was sullied somewhat by charges of plagiarism later in life, but those two books are remarkable. In it, he talked about how German POWs were sent back to the US to work on farms in the absence of the American boys, and the Germans would join the families at the table and go out to eat with them. African American soldiers, in uniform, had to eat out the back door of the kitchen.
