How about Operation Keelhaul?

[muawiyah]

Have an older friend who was in a POW camp being starved by the Brits only to end up repatriated to what had become the Soviet Zone of Occupation in Germany before he could "fall into American hands".

He says the starvation stuff was strictly British as was most of the repatriation to Eastern Europe and East Germany.

Over the course of the next few years he escaped several times to the West only to be caught by West German local authorities (as that country began to put itself together) and get sent back East ~ probably to keep him from costing them money to send him to college.

Eventually he got accepted in the West, emigrated from Germany to the US and got a doctorate in Tokyo.

This is, undoubtedly the life he would have spent whether Germany lost the war or won the war.

Kealhaul was under Truman.
