Photographers of the Third Reich : Images from the Wehrmacht (Paperback)

Of the millions of German soldiers who went to war, many were armed with their personal cameras and intent on photographically chronicling their Dienstzeit, or military service, via meticulously prepared albums or by turning their photos into postcards sent to family and friends. Others were professional photographers and filmmakers recruited by the military and the Nazi State propaganda ministry to produce images for their agendas.The cameras included older 127 and 120 film formats as well as the new 35 mm still-cameras and even 8- and 16-mm movie cameras.
