Puzzled civilians watch German soldiers march unopposed down the main street of Oslo during the occupation of Norway April 9th 1940. In the background the royal castle Traitor Vidkun Quisling would use as his office during the war.

Vidkun Abraham Lauritz Jonssøn Quisling was a Norwegian military officer, politician and Nazi collaborator who headed the government of Norway during the country’s occupation by Nazi Germany during WWII
 
German soldiers held in America cry watching footage of concentration camp
The German civilians were aware of great misgivings within population, but there were so frightened of their own govt they
said nothing. They viewed the boarded up boxcars, with barbered wire covering the two openings as the trains passed through their train stations.
They knew segments of their population disappeared, they knew.

The German GI (not counting the SS) knew little about the concentration camps.

The P.O.W.s in your post knew nothing.
That is the way all armies operate

Thanks mellowyellow, I had not seen any pictures of German P O W's confronted with the sins of their govt

heart.jpg

Dr. Zbigniew Religa monitors his patient’s vitals after a 23-hour long heart transplant surgery in 1987. His assistant is asleep in the corner.

Dr. Religa was a pioneer of heart transplantation in Poland, and even though the surgery was considered borderline impossible at the time, he took the chance, and the operation was entirely successful.

The patient was Tadeusz Żytkiewicz, who died in 2017 – 30 years since the operation, outliving the man who gave him a new heart.
