The following photos have no date and no description so let me apologize in advance. I post them in case anyone might have some interest in them.
I will try to post only photos that appear to be taken during the summer of 1941. In some cases I will add personal comments so you know who to blame when I screw up.
I don't know if this German actually captured this female soldier or just thought it would make an interesting photo.
Russian prisoners marching west-I'm guessing in the Ukraine.
A sight that is becoming more common as the German army moves east.

The war on the eastern front was such that those photographed alive on either side would soon be dead or wounded and unfit for duty.

The picture of the vehicl with the letter “G” on the back is from 2d Panzergruppe. The “G” is for Guderian.

I wonder if the medic on the improvised stretcher is Papke. Do you know if the two photos are juxtaposed, or if the two being together here is just random?

German soldier talks to wounded Soviet tanker.Are you sure about that? It looks to me like a substantial part of the Soviet tanker is missing.
