Probably fine. I think a lot about how Bayer, which literally made the gas for the chambers, is still around and apparently doing well. And while Germany was war ravaged, it wasn't to a much greater extent than the rest of Europe.

Yes but I also imagine many of the males in that picture died or were injured

Germany lost an entire generation of males during WWII. They didn't run out of war machines, they ran out of soldiers.
