| TITEL | Zivilist aus Suttrop, vermutlich ein Arzt, mit der Leiche eines ermordeten Babys. Fototext: "German civilian holds body of Russian child he and other residents of Suttrop, Germany, were forced to exhume from its common grave. When U.S. Ninth Army troops occupied the town, informers led them to huge grave containing bodies of 57 Russian victims, including women and one baby, who had been forced to dig their own grave before they were shot by SS troops. American officers ordered German civilians to exhume the bodies, attempt identification with the aid of Russian Displaced Persones, and rebury them in individual graves with burial rites performed by a U.S. Army chaplain." |
