Notes:: English non-commissioned officers entertain German scholars, Alois Brandl and Wilhelm Doegen, in their barrack at Quedlinburg. They are enjoying five o'clock tea and the table appears to be well-stocked. The German civilians were part of the Deutsche Kommission which investigated conditions in prison camps.
