WWII Photo Negatives Capture the Fall of Germany – POW Photos

December 31, 2011January 1, 2012 / portraitsofwar / Leave a comment

The myriad of uniform variations and service branches in the following images is a reminder of the chaotic nature of the late war in Germany. A member of the 9th Armored Division snapped a series of two dozen images of captured German soldiers. I’ve chosen a small selection to share here. These medium format negatives scan with great quality.
