I like the GIs photo. The look on their faces says it all.

Here is a press photo from 1945. They were probably captured during the Battle of the Bulge campaign. The caption reads as follows:

66773/ You see the “cultural holders” from the USA!
Many Negroes are brought in as prisoners from a battle group in the Belgium-Luxemburg area.

ps is it possible to see the back with the text also ?

[Todd Gylsen]

Thanks Eric-Jan! Here is the back of the photo showing the text.

Fantastic picture indeed, the text is however more-saying:
66773 "This is what the cultur-holders from the USA look like".

... While thousands of "Untermenschen" from Eastern Europe were getting killed in German uniforms while defending the Reich. The irony ...

Nice photos guys, especially the uncommon GI ones. Keep on sharing!

Thanks Ypenburg for the correction in my translation. I shall have to correct my database.
