The Kitchen Staff at Meschede

View Item Record

Notes:

The POW kitchen staff, with their German non-commissioned officers, stand with their cooking utensils in front of the prison kitchen at Meschede. The staff, composed primarily of French POWs, is well equipped with a wide range of cooking tools. Note the presence of German officers and several civilians in the back row, which suggests that a camp inspection was underway at the time of this photograph.
