April Meeting
Summary:: Dieter
Huth was born in 1940 and his
childhood toys were toy soldiers. During the war the German government was well
organized. Food as rationed but no one starved.
After the war chaos ensued with the collapse of the government. Food was
scarce. He remembers eating kohlrabi 7 days a week. He won’t eat it now.
Starvation and hunger will lead people to do things they wouldn’t otherwise do.
