What Is He Ashamed Of?

 A German POW hides his face from his captors' camera in 1945. He's in the Luftwaffe (from his collar tabs) and he wears a Hitler Youth proficiency badge (with the arrow up), a DRL sports medal, and what I believe is a Fallschirmjäger (paratrooper) campaign badge (eagle swooping down). He has a ribbon for the Iron Cross, Second Class through his top front button hole. I like his neck scarf, very debonaire.
