Luftwaffe II./Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 1 - Poland 1939

[PKeating]

Members of II./FJR1 watch the humiliation of Jews in Poland in 1939. This snapshot came from a small lot of photos that belonged to a former Heer paratrooper who was transferred to the Luftwaffe with the rest of the Fallschirm-Infanterie-Bataillon. As many of the officers and NOCs of II./FJR1 still had their Heer uniforms at this stage, it is hard to tell from this photo if personnel from units other than II./FJR1 are involved. The young man partially obscured by the woman appears in several books.
