Description
(Pressphoto) Fallschirmjäger “Abgeworfen Behälter” (large size 24,5 x 18 cm).
“Deutsche Wissenschaftler – Fallschirmjäger. Nach dem Absprung versucht jeder so schnell als möglich, den abgeworfen Behälter, der das Labor enthält, zu erreichen. Der Behälter wird fahrbereit gemacht und sofort geht es im Laufschritt weiter, auf der Suche nach Trinkwasser” [German scientists – paratroopers. After the jump, everyone tries to reach the dropped container containing the laboratory as quickly as possible. The container is made ready for transportation and immediately it is continued to search for drinking water].
This a photo of a small group of German paratrooper scientists photo’s. A totally unknown branch of the Fallschirmjäger. These accompanied the landing of (large) groups of paratroopers and did e.g. test on groundwater, to see if it could be used for consumption.
This is a very rare original wartime pressphoto. Due to it’s large size very good for display, either framed on a wall or in a glasscabinet. FJ dropping container photo’s are very hard to find.
It is in good condition.
