German soldier with a Soviet female POW in a field, 1941. Ending in a horrible way


German soldier with a Soviet female POW in a field, 1941. Ending in a horrible way 

Dude looks like he was just in the middle of something with the POW and looked up to see a bunch of Soviet soldiers staring at him.

He looks caught off guard and his gear is messed up (off to the side). My guess is camera persons took this pic while an altercation betweeen the two was going on or had just finished. Plus the grass (or whatever there standing in) is all pushed down which indicates signs od a ground struggle

Sick fuck is holding his belt as if he was removing it. Knowing that 10 million women were raped by the Wehrmacht on the eastern front, Im fairly certain that the same will unfortunately be her fate

His right hand appears to be holding the magazine on an MP-38/40, in a barrel up position. Can't quite tell what's going on with the left hand.

The cartridge belt is on sideways, anyway. Unless he invented a new fashion trend, I would assume he's been thrashing around and the belt shifted. Not good.

60 Minutes did a story on rape of Soviet women by German soldiers. Sadly, one told of how she was in a German POW camp and Soviet soldiers liberated them and they raped them She went to the Commander of the Soviet troops to complain, and he raped her. Neither side was inherently good Soviets raped women in Berlin and the Germans did the same in Stalingrad.

she likely did not live very long after this photograph was taken. It's well-known that the Germans looked down at Russian soldiers, but so particularly at female Russian soldiers.

estimate that rapes of Soviet women by the Wehrmacht range up to 10,000,000 incidents, with between 750,000 and 1,000,000 children being born as a result.

Fact:German Army Rule book states that any soldier who commits the crime of rape, and mistreatment of POWs shall be punished by execution or punishment battalion. Of course no one cared about those rules. And officers didnt report them, and did it aswell. Probably only few were punished in the early years. R.I.P. to all of the victims of the invasion.

During the invasion of Poland several German soldiers were accused of war crimes by some high-ranking generals, but all war criminals received a general amnesty for any crime they had committed at the hands of Hitler himself, already for the invasion of the USSR Hitler he made the Barbarossa Decree in which he legalized any war crime that did not undermine discipline so... Yes, that book was completely ignored

They also had a system of sexual slavery organized by the state, only Japan also reached these levels of cruelty with the Comfort Women, it is another of the forgotten Nazi crimes in popular culture:

The officers in the frontlines made their soldiers escort them to the battalion HQs. Most insisted to be shot. Because they knew what was waiting for them. And most were either sent to camps, or to another HQ for a little “chat” or executed sadly.

a vast majority of captured soviet female soldiers were shot by the invading German army’s.
Here is one example:
Field Marshal Walter von Reichenau issued specific orders that women along with captured Russian soldiers were to be immediately shot dead. The Nazis viewed female soldiers as degenerates, and although von Reichenau was a fanatical Nazi this practice was common in armies outside of his command as well.

This photograph captures one of the last moments of this woman’s life.

Cheng Benhua was a resistance fighter who gave her life defending her home country of China against the Japanese Imperial Army.  She has become a symbol of bravery in the face of death and unspeakable abuse.  Not long before striking this defiant pose, Cheng Benhua was repeatedly abused by her Japanese captors.  Despite the awareness that she would soon be killed, she still managed to put on a devious smile that made it seem like she was taunting the soldiers around her. Cheng Benhua's unwavering courage in the face of death has become an iconic representation of fearless resistance. A photograph, taken by a Japanese photographer shortly before she was fatally wounded in 1938, captures her unyielding spirit.  Not long before striking this defiant pose, Cheng Benhua was repeatedly abused and raped by her Japanese captors.  Despite enduring severe mistreatment at the hands of her captors, she appears to smile as she faces death, with her

American soldiers execute SS camp guards who have been lined up against a wall during the liberation of Dachau concentration camp.

Following the liberation of the Dachau concentration camp, American troops felt an urge to personally punish the camp's guards. What exactly transpired still isn't known. Dachau concentration camp, located in the state of Bavaria, Germany, was the first concentration camp established by the Nazi regime. On April 29, 1945, Dachau was liberated by the U.S seventh Army’s 45th Infantry Division. Corpses of prisoners in the Dachau death trains. 1945. But it wasn’t just liberated. Reports indicated that, appalled by what they saw, members of the U.S army were driven to take revenge. They allegedly murdered the SS officers and guards who were responsible for the Holocaust horrors that took place at Dachau. The troops arrived at the Dachau concentration camp in the afternoon. They were on their way to Munich which was just over ten miles from Dachau. Though the troops passed through Dachau, it wasn’t initially a part of the attack zones they were headed for.

German women were raped by all armies at the end of the second world war From the archive, 17 June 1955: Berlin woman's memoir of mass rape reviewed Controversial book suggests many Berlin women were raped by drunken Red Army soldiers during the second world war Observer, 19 June 2005: When rape was a spoil of war Two years after the end of the war Berlin still smelled of death. Each street contained dozens of ruins and every ruin, especially after rain had fallen and there was still a dampness in the air, retained the same sickly smell. It may have been, as some Germans honestly believed, corpses buried beneath them, or it may have been the state of the drains. It may simply have been the projection of a short but stormy past into the greyness of that particularly uninviting present. A Woman in Berlin (Secker and Warburg, pp. 284, 15s) tells the story of a single German woman of middle-class family, living in the Neu-Kölln district of Berlin. This district has
