Unelected warlord Winston Churchill said to the Germans in January 1945, ‘We Allies are no monsters.  This, at least I can say, on behalf of the United Nations, to Germany. Peace, though based on unconditional surrender, will bring to Germany and Japan immense and immediate alleviation of suffering and agony.’ 

German scholar and revisionists Dr Austin Joseph App says that the Allies Churchill had described as not being monsters raped and slaughtered more European females than had ever before been raped in the history of the world. 

German women were raped by members of the Russian, Polish, French and American forces during and at the end of World War II.  During their flight to the West and the period of expulsions, German girls and women were also raped by Czechs, Serbians and Slovenians. 

The combined armies the British, Soviet and American armed forces occupied dismembered Germany no longer a land of dignity. All means of degradation and humiliation were applied to the defeated German survivors of the Allied Holocausts.

Following the capitulation by the German armed forces (the elected Berlin government refused to surrender and so were arrested, charged and many were hanged) horrifying tortures of surrendered captives both military and civilians commenced.

Millions of German women and girls were raped.  The estimated figures for rape are about two million.  Ingo von Münch calculates 1.4 million rapes for the territory east of the Oder and Neiße line, and about 500,000 in the former DDR. 

Ilya Ehrenburg, a rabid Soviet politburo member, distributed flyers among the Soviet soldiers weeks ahead before the Red Army entered East Germany.  Ehrenburg, by the most vicious and vituperative language possible, urged his troops to commit mass and indiscriminate rape of German women and girls in public, and to ‘kill at least one German each day’.  

In Berlin alone, tens of thousands of women had to endure this brutal, humiliating behaviour by the Red Army.  The call, frau, komm (woman, come) became a most terror-inducing expression ever to be heard.  Extensively written monographs of this horrific post-WWII era have been published.

As the Red Army advanced towards Berlin in 1945, the city had become virtually devoid of men.  Out of a civilian population of 2,700,000, 2 million of them were women.  It is small wonder that the fear of sexual assault raced through the city like a plague.  Doctors were besieged by patients seeking information on the quickest way to commit suicide and poison was in great demand. 

Sadistic American troops, especially when they subjected women to interrogation, committed rape, in addition to their routinely practised physical torture. 

Conditions became so bad that shortly after American troops landed on French soil, the French people openly wished the Germans were back.  Few moral scruples were shown by the Americans towards German (or French) women, upon entering France and Germany.  

Johann Heilmeyer prepared an affidavit to an interrogation hearing, that the U.S. members in his presence, raped a woman bound by her hands to a chair, tore-off pieces of her clothing, and tortured her. 

Other women were threatened that if they did not furnish the information demanded, or of what the interrogators wanted to hear, the women would be confined for a night of sexual abuse by black troops of the United States.

On March 24, 1945, the Red Army entered Danzig.  A 50-year-old Danzig teacher reported that her niece, 15, was raped seven times, and her other niece, 22, was raped fifteen times. 

A Soviet officer told a group of women to seek safety in a Cathedral.  Once they were securely locked inside, Red Army soldiers entered, and while ringing the bells and playing the organ, they ‘celebrated’ a foul orgy throughout the night, raping all the women, some more than thirty times.  A Catholic pastor in Danzig declared, ‘They violated even eight-year-old girls, and shot boys who tried to shield their mothers.’ 

The rapists were not just the Red Army troops. John Dos Passos, writing in LIFE magazine for January 7, 1946, quotes a ‘red-faced major’ as saying that ‘Lust, liquor and loot are the soldier’s pay.’  A serviceman wrote to TIME magazine for November 12, 1945, ‘Many a sane American family would recoil in horror if they knew how ‘Our Boys’ conducted themselves, with such complete callousness in human relationships over here.’ 

An army sergeant wrote, ‘Our own Army and the British Army have done their share of looting and raping.’

Journalist Osmar White, a war correspondent from Australia, who served with American troops during the war, wrote, ‘After the fighting moved on to German soil, there was a good deal of rape by combat troops, and by those immediately following them. 

The incidence varied between unit and unit, according to the attitude of the commanding officer. 

The army legal branch was reticent but admitted that for brutal or perverted sexual offences against German women, some soldiers had been shot,- particularly if they happened to be Negros. 

Cited as fact, many women were raped by white Americans.  No punitive action was taken against the culprits.  In one sector, a report went round that a certain very distinguished army commander made the wisecrack, ‘Copulation without conversation does not constitute fraternization.’

There was widespread victimization with sexual assault by drunken American personnel marching through occupied territory. One recorded instance involved threatening a German family with weapons, forcing one or more women to engage in sex, and putting the entire family out on the street afterwards.

As in the eastern sector of the Allied occupation, the number of sexual assaults peaked in 1945, but a high rate of violence against the German and Austrian populations by the Americans lasted at least into the first half of 1946, with five cases of dead German women found in American barracks in May and June of 1946 alone.

NOTE: Contrary to media spin, German troops demonstrated right to the end of the Second World War, a model discipline towards prisoners and civil population alike in the occupied lands. 

Particularly, superiors tolerated no encroachments by their subordinates towards the local women of occupied lands.  In the appeal of the German commanders to their troops, it was made very clear that violations towards women would be severely punished.  If nevertheless, an incident did occur, as can happen in a million-strong army, the military justice would be swift in punishment to keep up the discipline and morale of the troops.
