Last weekend, I was looking for a place where there were dead bodies of German soldiers ... Be****vka a settlement, south of Volgograd...
After the battle of Stalingrad, German soldiers were prisoners of war in a POW camp in the village Be****vka in the barracks of Stalingrad thermal condensing power...
This famous camp number 108, there were about 35,000 German and Romanian soldiers ... prisoners
By March 1943 many soldiers died of wounds and dysentery, about 15,000 soldiers ... were stored next to the camp ...I found this place
Now there is sand quarry
...

Yeah, you would think SOMETHING would be found,, unless maybe bulldozed over and all of it is buried deep in the ground.
Thank you for your continious work!You really make our days Sebastian The Great !
History has a sens because of you.
Merci beaucoup Monsieur!
Theory: German soldiers most likely discarded and destroyed much equipment and personal belongings just prior to going into captivity.
They knew they would be frisked and the above confiscated, so not wanting it to fall into the hands of their captors even deeply personal property was destroyed or discarded (rings, medals, photoes etc).
Then going into captivity they had some items confiscated.
When the prisoners died because of the conditions mentioned, their bodies would most likely have been subjected to further searches - either by fellow prisoners needing boots or uniform items or by the Russians.
I suppose, thats is why there is not much to be found.
As mentioned, just a theory.
Very interesting pics, Sebastian. As always.
Thank you for sharing these grim pics.
Food for thought.
Great pictures and letting us revisit this part of WW2 History!
Semper Fi,
Bob
