Many didn’t resist owing to the fact that many were poor and frightened of what was happening (DuBois, pg. 74). In addition, some situations had to take drastic measurements to make villagers obey orders, e.g. at gun point (DuBois, pg. 75). In these circumstances, many people didn’t resist their oppressors, however some were willing to intervene and oppose the unrighteous acts of the Germans. Each of these are a subcategory of the villagers requisitioned: the ones who did as they were told, and the ones who tried to stop them.
