We’re the D-Day Dodgers out in Italy,
Always on the vino, always on the spree…
—“The Ballad of the D-Day Dodgers”, a #WW2 soldiers’ song, to the tune of “Lili Marlene”, & collected by Hamish Henderson (1919–2002). The term was an insulting reference to Allied troops fighting in Italy in 1944 (none of whom, of course, were able to choose where & when to fight). Henderson fought in North Africa & Italy in WW2.
Cologne was one of the most heavily bombed German cities during WW2. The city was littered with unexploded bombs following Allied air-raids. Concentration camp prisoners were used to defuse the munitions. A prisoner, Hans Steinbrück, personally defused 900 bombs, earned local notoriety, & was given the nickname “Bomber Hans.” He was able to escape & the Ehrenfeld Edelweiß Pirates group sheltered him.

From an early age, Hans Steinbrück struggled to find a place for himself within German society. Born in 1921 and orphaned by the age of five, he did not have any family to look to for guidance.Kurt Christopher (History Collection)
The most active Edelweiß Pirates in Cologne, including Jean Jülich, hid among the bombed-out neighborhood of Ehrenfeld. The Ehrenfeld Group “supplied black market food and shelter to runaway forced laborers, concentration camp escapees, fugitive Jews and German army deserters. They attacked Hitler Youth patrols, derailed ammunition trains, catapulted bricks through the roof of a munitions factory and sabotaged machinery.” (2/7)
