Re: Bomb Disposal
German POWs helped both de-mine Britain's coasts and took part in post-war bomb disposal - but in accordance with the Geneva Convention, they volunteered and were paid a little extra danger money for their troubles.
I'm sure the irony of Luftwaffe POWS helping dispose of German unexploded bombs was not lost on them...
