Germany definitely existed as a dominant player in World War II, because the country started the war and also occupied France, which was then known as the world's first army power. In the later period, the whole world began to target Germany, so the country has always stood in the leader of the war, of course, such a high-intensity war directly led to the German army's food must be good. If it is not good, there is no spirit to fight, Zhang Xueliang once said that he wanted to join the German army, because this meal was so delicious.
German soldiers at that time had everyone standard with biscuits, canned meat, coffee, and so on. The field troops would add some bread, meat and some coffee and salt. This is their standard, and many people say that it is not very tasty. But to know that in today's words, this kind of food can reach this level in any country, but it is very difficult to ration such food 60 years ago today. Because the Germans had a population of nearly 4 million, they had to eat a lot of food every day. For example, pork is distributed 400 grams per day. So our simple seat multiplication today, 4 million troops 400 grams of pork per day, then the need for pork per day is 1.2 million kilograms, that is, almost 1.2 million pounds of pigs. Now, it is almost necessary to kill 200,000 pigs a day, so there are actually a lot of such foods.
Therefore, the supply of the Germans alone is far from enough, they are not specialized breeders, for them these soldiers are generally supplied by the warehouses in the occupied areas to transport supplies. The first place to grab a place is the warehouse of this place, because only by occupying the warehouse can they have enough meat to eat. On the battlefields of World War II. The first thing the British captured after defeating the Germans was not their equipment, but the tea, spice bags, sweets, etc. they carried with them. From this, we can also see how good the Food of the Germans was at that time.
And for these meals we can look at the highest level of their food, which they call their luxury set, which contains 750 grams of rye bread, 120 grams of sausage (or smoked fish), 45 grams of butter (vegetable cream), 200 grams of jam or artificial honey, 120 grams of meat, 750 grams of cooked potatoes, 15 grams of spices, 45 grams of vegetable or animal fat, 8 grams of coffee beans (or black tea), 1 bag of chocolate (or candy), 7 rolls of cigarette paper, and 2 rolls of tobacco.
Therefore, such food is really a special envy, no wonder the young marshal at that time would think like this.
