Re: Japanese volunteer in Normandy
The caption states:
Captured Red Army soldiers who "volunteered" for the Heer, perhaps?They look like Japs, but they are Mongolians captured with the Nazis in Normandy. Looking not too happy about the whole affair, this group is shown aboard a Coast Gaurd-manned troop transport en route to internment in the United States. A Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer (left) and a Marine stand guard.
