NEW THIS WEEK – MONDAY 28 JUNE 2010

Hi there and welcome to what’s new on miliblog this week. Well after three shows last week it was time once again to trawl through the collection of German WW2 photographs to add some more to our Eastern Front Collection. From our email-bag, these photos are very popular with you all, so I hope you will enjoy this week’s additions of which we feature five samples below.

We kick off with a column of German infantryman marching along a dusty road in the height of Summer. Following on is an unusual photo featuring two soldiers standing guard over a mermoral to their comrades lost in action.  Next we have some more marching soldiers, but this time Soviet prisoners of war and marching off the other way into captivity.

Next photo is a chiily one in the snow with a sergeant holding up a snow stick. And finally, we have an unusual one in the form of a crashed Soviet Polikarpov I-16 fighter plane, so neatly crashing without even knocking over any of the fences.

So we’ll return to the scanner and the phot box and see what we can bring you next week.

Cheerio !

Simon
