2. It was the rabble of camp followers and logistic troops who carried out the rapes against German women, not the elite victors. This makes sense if you think about it. Women WANT sex with the winner. It’s the rear echelon or defeated army of cowards or failures who rape.
1. Moore & Gillette “Warrior, King, Magician” (1991): Rape in wartime, accoridng to Luttwak, is not the activity of the victor. It occurs when a retreating or demoralised army falls back. They rape women as they go. The Soviet rapes of German women were carried out by the rabble.pic.twitter.com/BUVzHDQlg3
