I'm a big fan of historical photos, and collected a big stack of them. Here I would like to share them with you and tell you a little about each photo.

I hope you like it.
P.s. I will try to update this discussion with new photos as often as I can.

1945 - German soldiers watch documentary about concentration camps - their faces say everything
I believe this was mandatory part for all German soldiers after World War 2 to watch documentary about Concentration Camps. I've read that many soldiers fainted or threw up during these documentaries. Most cried.

Seems to me, you either own thaat website or copied the photos from Rare Historical Photos´(Or you've got exactly the same photos and used by pure chance the same words.)

The "perfect body" looks a little bit fat to me, and that isn't a "US flag".

@contrex,

Snopes calls that "perfect body" a fake. (The above named website has quite a few more photos with, at least, wrong dates/wrong titles/wrong descriptions

@hopelessjoe,

Wow, really amazing!) Do you know how and where you can restore old photos if they are the same as these?

Old photos have something indescribable in them. Good times and bad times becomes old ones. Love your pictures (if they were yours).
