A Rare Find: The Tallest German Soldier
Someone was talking with the prisoners that came out, oh maybe a hundred and fifty, two hundred, I don’t know. The one group anyways, in that particular, at that particular time. And there was one of them that was about that high over the head of everybody else. And someone that could speak German questioned about that fellow. To me he was tall. But he was the tallest German soldier in the German army. No kidding, I, we were surprised.
