Russian POWs Eating a Meal in a German Prison Camp
- Notes:
- These Russian prisoners are heartily enjoying their meal of soup in the compound of a German prison camp. By the end of the war, most Russian prisoners were constantly hungry because they did not receive parcels from home to supplement their daily rations and were known to scavage garbage dumps for food scraps.
