Damn, dude looks like he's 14 or 15. Probably toward the end of the war.

Nice post, BTW.

A group of captured soldiers of the Waffen-SS are interrogated by an American soldier. the SS-Sturmbannführer (major) is talking energetically at the G.I. while the high-decorated Rottenführer (corporal) seems to be amused by the situation.

The corporal is probably just happy they didn't get captured by the Soviets.

Don't be an idiot. Not all soldiers sign up. Some are drafted against their will. And try telling the Soviet government in the 40's you were not going to fight and see what happened.

And fighting for one's country does not make one a retard.

Jews waiting to be gassed.

There are serious fallacies to your statement. But I'm sure you knew that.

Besides, I signed up. And I'm A). Not a retard B). Not homeless or on the street, and C). not being incinerated.

We'll see what happens though.

Inside boundary of Dachau (wtf, I have no idea why these are so small)

Entrance to the gas chamber (Inscription above door reads "Shower" in old German)

Gas chamber, with wall brackets for hooking up a hose and washing out the remains.

The guy in the picture was in a vehicle that was hit during that retreat and looks as if he died trying to escape his vehicle as it caught fire.

The Highway of Death (Highway 80) runs north from Kuwait City to Al Basrah
