When German mothers arrived at Camp Como, Texas in March 1945, they expected their children to be torn from their arms. Instead, American soldiers played peek-a-boo through the barbed wire. This is the true, untold story of 37 German POW mothers and their babies who were held in a Texas internment camp during World War II. What they experienced there challenged everything they'd been taught about their enemies. From guards bringing toys and doctors staying up all night to care for sick German babies, to cooks ensuring milk was warm enough and soldiers making silly faces to earn giggles, these acts of unexpected compassion proved more devastating than any cruelty could have been. This historical account explores how American kindness broke down the propaganda these women had believed their entire lives, revealing the complex humanity that can exist even between enemies during wartime. Through the story of Greta Hoffman and her son Klaus, Private Wheeler from Iowa, and Dr. Morrison who treated enemy children as his own, we discover how mercy can be more powerful than violence and how choosing to see the humanity in everyone—even enemies—becomes the foundation for lasting peace.
