Parcel Post Delivery at Stendal
Description:
French prisoners line up with the recently-acquired parcels and Liebesgaben from their family and friends at home. German censors carefully searched these parcels for contraband before releasing them to the prisoners. These parcels contained foods unavailable in the prison camps and greatly improved the diet of the recipients. The camp recently received considerable rain, given the size of the puddles in front of the building.
