... I suspect that the majority of the men depicted in German uniform and possibly Soviet never lived to experience the end of WW2 and home .... 5 million Germans died, 3.5 of them on the Eastern Front and at the very least 3 times that number of Soviets .... so in my mind these photos are the same as lighting a little candle to their memory.
