German prisoners of war. (These German
prisoners of war drove themselves in their own trucks to surrender to the GI's. One
guard was posted for every fifty POW's. They set up their own mess and fed themselves
from GI rations and what they brought themselves. As seen in the photos, some are
not shy for the camera but others hide their face in fear of retaliation
against their families back in Germany.)
