German soldiers in Russia (Eastern Front): Part 1

This is a dismal picture from the Russian Front. A dull, foggy day. German soldiers bid farewell to their departed colleagues

Socialising. A relaxed lull in the war

Captured guns from the Russians?

Seems like there is a Soviet soldier around. The German soldier is alert and nervous. The officer is calm and collected. Almost amused.

Trying out captured Soviet guns

This Wehrmacht officer takes time out to read

Captured Russian soldiers

Early days in the eastern front. The soldiers are all spic and pan. And fresh. The troubles began later.

Seems like celebrating Christmas

An eerie picture. Notice the graveyard on the side? That is where most German soldiers in Russia landed up

Typical German scientific approach; even to war
