My Job was Milking Cows!

Another story about that place. The Germans were collecting French cows. All kinds of milking cows and they wanted somebody. They said come with me with a pistol and said you milk the cows and lucky I was a farm boy I could milk and by the time I got them darn cows milked it’d be time to start over in the evening again. The only thing that saved me was they were killing them off for beef too. So, I ended up with only about six, five or six cows and I got lots of work. But they treated us not bad. They were German soldiers that had fought on the Russian front and they were quite friendly with us as long as we did our job.
