The researchers concede, however, that happily married brides were more likely to fill out the questionnaires. In any case, it was hard to find a divorced bride in the group. Like many German women who dated American men in the beginning of the postwar period, she was ostracized in her country for ''fraternizing,'' she said. When she married and settled here she was branded as ''a Nazi'' for a brief period. Nor does Margarete Berthiaume.

She was working as a nurse in a hospital in Gmunden, Austria, where her future husband was stationed. They met on a blind date. In typical GI fashion, Paul Berthiaume exaggerated a bit about the good life in America, she recalled. For example, when he sent her a photograph of the Victorian house in Massachusetts where they would live, he neglected to say that it was a boarding house and that he himself was one of the boarders.

There are romantic stories as well. One of them reads like a Hollywood script, and it stars Katarina Trost and Daniel Militello, the couple who met in a park in Germany over a chocolate bar.

This was in April, Fraternization between American soldiers and German citizens was forbidden and marriage was illegal. After a teary goodbye, Militello returned to the United States, applied for a discharge and illegally re-entered Germany as a civilian. They were married there six weeks before the birth of their first child.

While registering the birth at the U. Consul General in Frankfort, Militello was arrested and sentenced to 30 days in jail for illegal entry. The rest of the story is in a scrapbook the Militellos passed around at the gathering on the Queen Mary. In it are scores of letters from high-ranking government officials including then Gen.

Eisenhower, as well as scores of newspaper clippings including one that reads: Felicia and her younger sister, Stephanie, sold flowers, picked mushrooms to sell, and later worked in a Glass factory to help support their family. In nineteen forty-five, in Brussels, she was employed as a Nanny by a Jewish couple, who were both Medical doctors.
