            AV59431/ The German people allow themselves a few hours of relaxation.
            The English and French watch day by day in panicked morale and increased tolerance. The German people pursue relaxation in quiet composure, which is a departure from the western powers who provoked the fighting. Today the Wehrmacht relaxes for hours in the forests and on the sandy beaches. Many vacationers can often be seen partaking in hours of relaxation after the hard action with the fighting in the West or in the high north. Our picture shows a view of the packed sandy beach in Wannsee near Berlin.
