Odd GI Bringback: colour German photo, Heer & Police taken in Russia
This was "Walmart processed" from a single negative that was found in a GI estate lot. I was surprised with the color and clarity (even though the scan and watermank kinda' inhibit it) - If I did not know where it came from I would think that it was a movie still from the 50s or 60s.
The sign on the door warns it's former Soviet passers-by that entry into the building by non-authorized persons is prohibited...

Bumping this old thread up, as it is a nice image that had got buried from the early days of the forum.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
