I seen wool and other types of material/ clothing from WWII Germanicon soldiers that was sent home and then turned over to the local seamstress to fashion into winter and other clothing for the local women. And I don't mean a piece or two, but 2 wheeled racks like you would see at a clothier.
I'm sure for some that wouldn't be too awful of a stretch to the imagination and have seen that before but it was a moment of realization for me that I had never considered.
