Title: Two men hanging from pole with Russian placard
Photographer : unknown
Date Created: 1945
Abstract: An image of two unidentified bodies hanging from a pole with a Russian placard with a German soldier in the foreground. The image may be related to the Buchenwald concentration camp, where at least 1,000 Soviet prisoners were executed in the year of 1941-1942. Many images owned by American soldiers were stolen from Nazis after the capture of their camps or their homes, and this image may have been taken at an earlier time and then appropriated by Gaskell Warren after his division took hold of Berchtesgaden, Germany where many Nazi had homes.

Title: Entrance to the Eagles Nest
Photographer : unknown
Date Created: 1945
Abstract: An armed Allied soldier stands at a guard post at the entry to the Eagle's Nest. The soldiers created a sign for the post reading: "Ye Olde Eagle's Nest. 101st A/B. Going up? Too bad! Hope you make it. Stop at Joe's for a short beer 1 mile ahead." The Eagle's Nest, or The Kehlsteinhaus, was built as a 50th birthday present for Adolf Hitler. Located near his home in Berchtesgaden, Germany, The Eagle's Nest was meant to be a retreat for Hitler and a place for him to entertain visiting dignitaries. Although the 101st airborne division claimed to be the first to the site, other units including Dwight D. Eisenhower's also claimed primacy. Photographs and newsreels showed troops relaxing on the patio and drinking wine in May 1945. The Eagles' Nest exists to this day; saved it from destruction by troops by Hitler's minimal association with the site.
