Concentration Camp Photos - #1

These are the first of many pictures Wilbur Musser took while serving in the U.S. army in World War II in Germany in 1945. Unfortunately he did not label these pictures. We would love to know more about the circumstances surrounding these pictures. If you happen to have an idea of which concentration camp (we think it may be one of the Malthausen satellite camps - perhaps Ebensee) please kindly contact us. Wilbur Musser is the GI in the final snapshot.

The March Through Germany

The 245th Combat Engineer Battalion in 1945 Nazi Germany

Slogging through the streets

Only 45km from Marburg, 89km from Frankfurt am Main

The dash through Germany

Left devastation in its wake...



With no time to eat...

And Allied casualties abandoned...


By the side of the road...

The trophies of war...
