[ARC5] Disposition of surplus aircraft, Europe WWII

[Hubert Miller]

If you'll bear with me for another digression post, another sub - subject about WW2 that interests me is the collapse of
discipline in some units of the German army. I have only come across two mentions of this. One was in a novel, based
on real events, by an Albanian author, that is based around the Wehrmacht soldiers in Albania who sold their weapons
to locals and hired themselves out to farmers. I came across one more mention of this in a entirely nonfiction account
of a Western spy in the Reich, where he communicated about collapse of Wehrmacht units on the same Front. OH and
one more, by a German POW in Russia, allowed to work outside the camp lumbering, who met Germans who were
living in remote areas of the mountainous USSR, never having surrendered and the national control and penetration
of the particular area so slight that it had not come to the government's attention. I'm sure that situation did not last
too long.
