    Nothing written on them to show where they were taken?

    That building looks like a hotel/restaurant (there are people eating at tables outside-- in the wintertime!) and it might be interesting to do a "Then And Now" with a photo taken from the same spot. :catjava:

    The officer wearing M43 type cap in front with von Schrader has what looks like a general's collar patch peaking out over his overcoat lapels.
