Чего-то у вас логика если A=B и C != B, то C=A какая-то уж больно "комплЕксная". Вы там разберитесь, ппоробуйте методом подстановки, ну например, если у C зп между 0 и $40, то C с большим трудом может быть B. Кроме, того, если эти B еще раз изберут К, это уже Ж.

Werwolf это больше сказки из голливудских фильмов
http://slate.msn.com/id/2087768/
The Army history records that while there were the occasional anti-occupation leaflets and graffiti, the GIs had reason to feel safe. When an officer in Hesse was asked to investigate rumors that troops were being attacked and castrated, he reported back that there had not been a single attack against an American soldier in four months of occupation
То есть это если и было, как в вашей ссылке, то настолько редко, что можно и не считать. Немцы порядок любят. Да и командовать некому было - Гелен да Скорцени уже на американцев работали
