Too Young Soldiers
An American soldier searches a very young Wehrmacht soldier after his capture near Berlin in 1945. The device on the barrel of the searcher's M 1 carbine, which looks like a very thin suppressor, is rather what the Americans used to launch rifle grenades. The boy being searched would be in his 80s if he has survived.
