History Topic: US torture of POWs

You don't know what your talking about. My grandfather was a interpreter for an American POW camp in northern Germany. In that camp, they had about 80K German prisoners who the Americans refused to feed, shelter or give medical treatment, all through a German winter. According to my grandfather, they were hauling out train loads of dead Germans everyday. And there were some torturing, too. As if the starvation wasn't enough, they would do things like spray the cold Germans with a firehose, and stuff like that. And once all the former German soldiers had been disarmed and interogated, the orders from the President were to hold the prisoners longer, because they hadn't suffered enough. They didn't let most of the prisoners go until the war had been over for more than a year.
