    It says that it’s loot from the Russians. The cover is movable and can change positions to your liking. In German of course

    Decent way to advance in trench warfare I guess. You’d find out if it was grenade proof pretty quick when you got close…not to mention enfilade fire

    I am not familiar with this stuff, does someone know why it states it is censored (lower left corner)? Did they remove dead bodies from the photograph or something?

      I think military censors are wary of depiction of war material, as they may be giving away secrets.

      Paul Hoffman was a photographer and publisher from Berlin, I think the photos are pre marked so the censors would not have to individually vet them.
