First World War Prisoners
These guys are supposed to be Russian POWs from World War I waiting for a shower. One soldier
seems to be keeping his boots on until the very last minute. Theft was likely a problem.
Being any sort of prisoner is indeed grim. I would only add that in the First World War, POWs were generally treated well. They were confined a long way from home, but these appear to be well fed, they're getting showers, and most of all, they are not being shot at.
J'espère que parmi ces militaires, il n'y en avait pas de gay... Il aurait été vite repéré!!! ******************** I hope that among these soldiers, there were none gay ... He would have been quickly spotted !!!
Well, some certainly were gay, but we don't know what their sex lives in captivity were. Things have a way of happening, even under the most controlled circumstances.
Something about the lighting makes this picture charming despite the grim background story.

DeleteThere is something very sexy about how darkly tanned their faces, necks and hands are, contrasted with how pale they are everywhere else.
