These photographs were taken by soldiers of Nazi Germany on the eastern front. The photo captures the everyday life of soldiers in the occupied territories and the moments of "cooperation" with local residents. Needless to say, German soldiers feel completely at home, and the photos are very similar to the so-called "demobilization album".
