I was waiting for the 2nd part of "Color of War - Adolf Hitler".But when I watched it on the History Channel, I wished I hadn't. The faces of the hungry children lying listlessly by the side of the road and the dead bodies piled on unceremoniously at the Buchenwald concentration camp would have seemed unreal if we didn't already know that the Nazis actually committed these crimes. The sight of 16-year old German boys being sent to the front was disturbing enough but what churned my stomach to the point of nausea was the narration of a German woman of how the Russian army raped German women after the fall of Germany.

Why do women and children always pay the heftiest price in any war? :-(
