German World War II Photography: Image 4


Figure 1.-- Here we see a German boy in a photograph we believe was taken during the War, presumably early in the War. It seems to be a Christmas photograph. The boy appears to be dressed in a World War I uniform. The helmet looks to be real, too fancy for a play outfit. The rest of his cstume may be a play clostume his mother made for him. You rarely see boys in the NAZI era dressing up in World war I uniforms.

You rarely see boys in the NAZI era dressing up in World war I uniforms. The NAZIs were very critical of Germany's World war I leadership. In part they were concerned about a possiblre Hollezorian claim to power. Some of the Kaiser's children dallied with the NAZIs hoping they would be returned to power. The Kaiser himself wanted nothing gto do with him.
