The Germans entered Russia on June 21, 1941. The victorious Russians pushed them out sometime in early 1945. So many parts of Russia saw German rule. How was life under occupation? The following pictures give us a fair idea.
This look eerily like the Babi Yar ravines
Life did not come to a stop under German rule
Looks like a scary proclamation about those who are to be bumped off.
Ordinary people the world over are the same. They have food to eat and a little freedom and they are happy. These Russians seem quite happy with the Germans. May be they found it better than Stalin's rule.

This man too. May be he was a communist
The Russian lady thought it best to befriend the Germans
Herding off
These ladies seem to have found boyfriends in German soldiers
Wonder where they are being sent to?
