Hi Paul,

This is very very interesting, thanx for bringing this up! Every now + then something similar pops up. Not just during WWI this sorta thing happened. And lotsa times, girls, women, got forced into this role.

Peddling along a bit, There's a book on warcrimes of Russian troops agains German population after WWII. German women were on the worst end of that. Its trully horrific + gruesome to dive into this. Also, this reminds me, the dutch population was not very friendly towards women that kept friendships to Germans.

Sometime ago, I collected some links on such things. For reference, here they come;

Troostmeisjes / comfort women:
comfort women survivors
greenleft.org

Moffenmeiden / kraut-girls
browse to chapter "t...n"
see a photo on this page, and comments on that photo
more photos here
and here is an abstract of paper in english by a dutch student. The dutch and full version is here. This topic is WAY too heavy to take in all at once!! To me anyway ...
