Jersey's wartime rationing experience was among the harshest in the British Isles — the only part of the British Crown to suffer full German occupation from 1940 to 1945. By 1944, caloric intake on the island had fallen to starvation levels, with the civilian population reduced to foraging for anything edible before a Red Cross relief ship, the SS Vega, arrived in December of that year carrying food parcels that likely prevented mass deaths.
