Great story.. However, it leaves me with a certain amount of disquiet.. Offering watches to POWs to buy and pay later seems to me to smack of a marketing strategy.. What would have been more noble would have been to give them the watches.. JMHO..

Business is business. I'm amazed that the Germans allowed their prisoners to order stuff via mail order. Too bad there weren't take-out restaurants then. I'm sure they would have enjoyed a pizza or two.
