“Prost!”, Between Battles on BergepantherWWII German Tankmen with BergepantherThe
harsh living conditions during the fighting and the constant nervous
tension and stress experienced by most Wehrmacht soldiers necessitated
some kind of mental relief. One of these ways was to drink alcohol. In
his memoirs, former Wehrmacht soldier Guy Sayer noted: “At the front,
there are as many vodka, schnapps, and liqueurs as there are machine
guns. It’s easier to make a hero out of anyone.” Alcohol could also
reduce the pain of the wounded. The main alcoholic drink in the
Wehrmacht was schnapps, and German soldiers, especially tankers, could
also be issued liqueurs. Officers often had French trophy cognacs or
wines, which were captured in such large quantities that they were
consumed even when surrounded, as was the case, for example, near
Stalingrad in the winter of 1943. However, it was very often a bad omen
to distribute alcohol to troops, as it often happened before major
battles and portended heavy casualties at the front.
