The picture is from an album, which was found by Soviet soldiers in a German shelter during the battles in East Prussia.' Motive of the Soviet front line in Lithuania in July 1941. With Operation Barbarossa the German invasion of the Soviet Union has started on 22nd June 1941. The systematic killing of the Jewish population has begun with the capture of the Baltic countries, White Russia and the Ukraine. First the German Wehrmacht was appreciated and supported as the 'liberators of the Stalin yoke', but later the initial pleasure was followed by hate, which was carried out in a partisan warfare.
