Leiche eines Säuglings mit seiner Mutter [?], ermordet während der Erschießung in Suttrop. Fototext: "Members of the U.S. Ninth Army occupying Suttrop, Germany, were led by informers to a huge common grave containing bodies of 57 Russians including many women and one baby, who were forced to dig their own grave, made to kneel at the edge of it so that their dead bodies fell into the grave when they were shot. German civilians were made to exhume bodies on orders of American officers so that with the aid of Russian displaced persons the victims could be identified, and then made to rebury them in individual graves. Here a body of a child lies amid corpses of several Russian women." Freigabe durch den Field Press Censor am 05.05.1945. | 1945-05-03
