What Jean DAVID said, LOL, plus which, a girl that pretty in time of war either fetches the most powerful boyfriend in the region or gets "ravished" till it kills her.
It seems that it's a (recent) photo of a model, besides very pretty, take a look here: http://les-sept-couleurs.tumblr.com/post/104994252970/prussica-imperatrix-close-up-model-me-photo and Google 'prussica-imperatrix', notice the name 'Prussica' and the photo is tagged prussica-imperatrix classiccollective: remember that Prussia was the historical and aristocrtical heart of the Germany...
The photo is also used in Brotherhood of Veterans, a 'Warrior Culture and History' blog created by a veteran who served in USMC Infantry, the page containing the photo is devoted to Wehrmacht young men and women, even a couple (no Nazis: I haven't noticed a SS insigna nor the TotenKopf, though it isn't a Nazi emblem at first), the other pages are specialized in a wide range of military subjects. John Bump you speak of the Russian female precision bombers, there were also famous female snipers but this girl wears an uniform of the Wehrmacht, unless she took it on the corpse of an enemy soldier during the WWII... unrepentantwarriorpriest.tumblr.com - Brotherhood of Veterans: Warrior Couple : prussica-imperatrix...
Bertrand Nelson: my grandfather was in the trenches in WWI on the Central Powers side, and had five or six Iron Crosses when he came back. I'm just about certain he was not awarded any of them. Recycling takes many forms.
John Bump I understand why you speak of recycling! My grandfather was Alsacian, Alsace is the border region with Germany that France and Germany have disputed many times, the iNhabitants speak a German dialect, I'm from the same region too. During the WWII he joined the SAS as a parachutist commando, the SAS are the first special forces troops created by England. He was trained in Scotland and landed in France a few days after the D-Day...
Bertrand Nelson: likewise, my grandfather was from northern Schleswig-Holstein, and considered himself Frisian, rather than either Danish or German. Similar situation to yours.
if I could see more of the uniform, educated guesses could be made. Maybe with some luck the young lady did allright.

ReplyDeleteThere are some great pictures on the web about the Night Witches, the all-female precision bomber pilots the USSR had, (eg http://images.mentalfloss.com/sites/default/files/styles/insert_main_wide_image/public/popova.jpg ) or Anna Yegorova, who wasn't content with bombing and instead commanded a squadron of tank-killer aircraft.
