    While I have heard much about WWII and the years leading up to it, I haven’t heard much about the time after it ended. Thanks so much for this enlightening conversation!

    I was a primary school pupil in 1946 in the City of London. I read newspaper headlines but did not understand much, of course...So thanks for this

    I collect old passports, especially World War II related, and I have at least 2 UNRRA workers passports from the US, as well as a court reporter from Washington state who, by the way became the first woman prosecutor in Washington state after the war who assisted one of the judges at Nuremberg. I also have Bertold Brect ex wife’s Austrian passport from the 1950s. Germany had no independent travel document until 1951! They used a travel permit released by the AHMG and used AMG stamps countersigned by military commission

    Let's not sugar coat. Nazis had to be defeated, they were maniacs. But they were also much admired and that led to their easy integration and post war Marshall plan and German reconstruction.

      The Nazis def needed defeated. Unfortunately, there is an argument that the communists were comparably bad.

      Idk if they were “much admired”. The Cold War was starting as soon as the World War was ending and they needed people who knew the Soviets and knew how to fight against them and spy against them and all that. It was more of necessity and recognition that the Nazi threat had passed.

    It's certainly true that the Soviet Union suffered a lot in WW2. But we also shouldn't forget that they enabled/ started the war in Europe to a large degree. It could be argued that the SU was the major winner of the war.

      Soviets and us Yanks definitely came out on top.
