REVIEWS

Review by anonymous (posted on 18-Sep-2006)

Why did they make the rapists all white when in fact they were black? This is based on a true story involving 5 black men from "H" Company 2nd Battalion 85th Infantry Regiment 10th Mountain Division stationed in Bamberg. I was there in "G" Company and was involved in the shake down to find the rapists. As I recall it took place in 1957. They were held in the regimental guard house until the regimental guards threatened to shoot them. The MP;s then took them to Wurzburg under Division control. For about 6 months following this incident we were not allowed to go on pass in Bamberg. The Germans had the right to try these men but wanted the military to do it because they, the Germans, did not have a death penalty and the military did.
