Interior of an Earthen Barrack at Doeberitz

Notes:

This photograph shows the British sailors and soldiers who lived in the "English Submarine," an underground barrack, at Doeberitz. The barrack is definitely crowded, like a submarine, but is well-stocked with tables and benches, a large wooden stove, and there are lots of provisions on the shelves in the back of the room.
