Hospital Grounds at Zossen

Notes:

This is an exterior view of the hospital for prisoners of war at Zossen, probably taken from a guard tower. There are lots of trees in this camp and German soldiers and NCO's are on one of the streets of the camp. The Germans captured wounded and sick Allied POWs and provided care for the less dangerous cases inside prison camps.
