Well Equipped Enemy
A Soviet partisan is captured by German soldiers in mid-Winter 1944. Because of glare or something, I can't see what weapon the soldier immediately behind the Soviet is carrying, but I can see the next soldier's rifle, an SVT-40, a Russian rifle which, as I've said often here, the Germans picked up and used whenever they could. You can still buy one today for about $800.
