Soup Line in the Camp Kitchen in Ruhleben

Notes:

British interned civilians file through the prison camp kitchen and have hot soup ladled into their dinner buckets. Before leaving through the exit on the right hand side, a prisoner smells his bucket to figure out what kind of soup is on the menu that day. Note the bars on the windows to prevent nocturnal visits from hungry or enterprising internees.
