Not sure what the occasion of these 2 photos was, but would someone be able to give me a brief description in English of the text on the reverse side of the first photo?

Many thanks in advance!!

re the event ....

Actually I should have realised the event. It was a mass burial for the dead from the "Deutschland" in Wilhelmshaven after the attack on it in the Spanish Civil War.
