During the many "death marches" that took place in Europe during World War II, especially in its final months, prisoners did not generally receive satisfactory food-provisions of any kind. From their captors, they might receive a small portion of bread, perhaps unsavory soup, perhaps a handful of low-quality vegetables. They would sometimes be given sustenance (eggs, bread, milk, fruit) by sympathetic observers from villages and towns. Sometimes they might be able to forage for themselves from the fields and forests through which they were marched.

∙ 10y agoThey ate about a pound of cornmeal and a pound of beef. If they were lucky the guards would give them a very small portion of bacon.
If nobody has answered this question yet then I will-What did they sleep in?- They slept in very small tents holding about 5 prisoners a tent, because it was very crowded many prisoners had to sleep on the cold, bare ground. If they were lucky they would get a blanket.

Well, you could get release via death. But afterwards, the prisoners were liberated, and, for those who survived long enough to get treatment, a LOT of food was issued to them to try to save their lives.
