Yes, Ektachrome was a war prize.
Whatever the ethics of this (and who's to say what's right and wrong in
wartime) it wasn't much of a catch. It's only in the last twenty years if
that that E6 films were interesting for the serious photographer.
Ektachrome was _way_ too blue forever, and it had serious stability
problems! The only time you used it is when you needed something in a great
big hurry. O/W you used Kodachrome.
Interestingly enough it was Fuji who introduced the E6 film that convinced
many photogs that E6 had arrived. RDP50.
