Additional Description

General

By Arthur Thiele. Verso - Es zogen tommies und franzos Auf Schleichpatroulle nachtlicht los, die maske jeder vorm Gesicht ; wem graut bei diesem Anblick nicht? Jedoch den deutschen kriegersmann Ficht solche Spukgestalt nicht an, Eh' sich die Bande druber klar "Entlarvt" sie und gefangen war. (Trans. Tommies and Frenchies set off on a stealth night patrol, the mask on everyone's face; Who does not dread the sight? However, the German warrior man does not attack such haunting figures, before the gang was clearly "unmasked" and captured.
