I wonder why the story writer failed to mention the Coca Cola provided to the Nazis.

Actually the syrup was cut off to Nazi Germany, so the German bottler was forced to create another beverage-an orange soda called “Fanta”.

After the war started Coca-Cola lost control of their German bottling. The company was forced to supply soda to civilians by the government. But they had to do it without coke, as the syrup supply was cut off. So they invented Fanta. So what you’re saying is only half true.

they also gave the boys plenty of cigarettes. Everyone that came out of the service smoked.

I thought that Fanta was the German replacement for Coca Cola products.

Why Coca-Cola invented Fanta in Nazi Germany

And Fanta came from the Nazis ... kinda.

By late in the war, the Nazis were having to rely on Ford for new trucks. The German owned manufacturers were bombed out, so Ford supplied the Germany army. Of course, that ended by early March 1945 when America troops overran the area
