Caring for Displaced Persons.
Heroes Remember
But we met a lot, a lot, a lot of DPs,
you know displaced persons
We ended up, we'd go to their,
where they would congregate,
put in the huts to live in, different German place,
the German home when those people
took over and the little, room it is
now a quarter of this size.
There'd probably be fifty people in it sleeping.
And then this pot was outside here and
this pot with the food in it.
They'd get everything and put it in a
community pot and that's the way they were,
that's the way they were eating.
There would be Canadian rations in
amongst it too, hard tack and all that.
Yeah we looked after them,
made sure they had the water.
We had a water truck with us and they'd fill
up all their little pots and pans,
whatever they had, cans mostly.
They'd fill them up with the water.
