There were tears of rage and frustration in my eyes as I read this.

"In Berlin immediately after the end of the war, German girls
considered 'four cigarettes good pay for all night. A can of
corned beef means true love.'"(pp. 343-345)
"It is shameful to observe how mothers sell their daughters
only for a sip of coffee from the Americans. I observe the
latter daily, as they slip into Mrs. Mueller's flat next door.
She launders their uniforms and uses her young daughter Else as
enticement, all to get some coffee. There are coffee parties
there every other day, to which Mrs. Froeling sends her daughter
Waltraud to catch an American for herself. And to think that
a German officer was barely good enough for these people, whose
daughters throw themselves away on American privates, with their
parents' blessing." Source: diary of professor Johann Paul Kremer,
June 10 1945.
