Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed.
Reason for the nomination:
Photos of various German military figures from the 1940s, apparently acquired from records of the Bundesarchiv (German Federal Archive), uploaded here with CC-BY licenses which are bogus. They are not old enough for PD-old-assumed, so without more any information about the context they were taken from, time and place of first publication etc. we cannot determine the copyright status of these photos in both Germany and the US, and the files should be deleted.
