Hi

The POW's that are in question, are the ones already guests of the Allies.

They, unlike their countrymen in Soviet captivity, would be well cared for even perhaps, then they were before their capture.

Unless Russia possed a threat to thier homeland the POWS would not fuight with the people who just defeated them. Even if Russia did pose a threat they may want to sea the people who destroyed them destroyed.

The only advantage the USSR would have in that department -- they would be capable of denying access to some of the best Germany had to offer. Yes, the German people had had enough of war. So had the people of the USSR. But in this hypothetical situation, the front line begins in the middle of Germany -- its only natural that they German people would get involved.

Guderian alone would be a tremendous asset for the West -- IF they managed to think to ask for his help.

They would probably take the Good people from Germany and put them to work for themselves.
