A few new photos came in the post today:

I liked this one, even though it looks like the negative wasn't in the best of shape when the photo was printed. In some ways, I think it adds to the raw...

By a strange twist, I was watching this video of Hitler's declaration of war on the US, and came across video footage right before my photo pickup above was taken. At 10:29, Hitler is walking with...

And a photo I felt had a measure of historical significance. On the back reads "Ljady. Juden beim begraben Russ. gefallener"...

Thanks HPL2008! Flipping that SA photo around is easy enough. I'll get it updated.

(edit: the image is updated)

I did some photoshop cleanup on my favorite of the Erwache photos, to remove...

These are all scans of negatives I picked up recently. I really enjoy the negatives for some reason, though I have no idea if they're more desirable than a photo or not. Seems like there can exist...

A few new pickups. Really liked the one of the Russian woman POW, glaring at the guy taking the photo. Seems like it captures some of the raw emotion of the era, and who doesn't respect the hell...

Couple of new photos today:

Nuremberg:

Yeah, that's true, which is why I used the word "thereby", as to point out their sacrifice is connected to our freedom today, even if not by design. I hope in a weird way that makes some sense....

There was another photo in the set that I didn't get shot from closer to the tank, on the other side. I believe from that photo if I recall, it appeared like the tank was heavily damaged close to...

I debated posting this, but after consulting a few folks here, decided to go ahead. I find the image a powerful reminder of the underlying events surrounding what we collect here, and hope that will...

Thanks! I'm not sure who that general is. I got the photo because he had the Knights Cross and I didn't yet have one with that.

Perfect! It would be that obvious wouldn't it? I kept thinking that said mein Fruend u Juß, which makes no sense. That script they used throws me off the trail. Thanks HPL!!

Bought a photo album that contains a good deal of photos from the campaign of a panzer trooper from 3rd company panzer regiment 31, which is part of the 8th Panzer Brigade from the 5th Panzer...

Front showing a troop of HJ:

You know, I hadn't researched that photo, but you're right. I found another photo of him carrying that same baton/stick. The only difference is he looks to be wearing glasses here. It's not a...

My new pickup, showing Hitler, and Goebbels in the background, and probably others some of you might recognize. The event seems like it might be some sort of groundbreaking ceremony. If anyone...
