Summary

Description
English: Released internees, Germany, probably 1918. Male civilians well-wrapped in coats and hats, standing in front of a large building. The caption identifies these men as internees, so it is probable that this could be the race-course at Ruhleben, near Berlin, where the Germans interned British male civilians of military age who were in Germany at the outbreak of war.

A member of the American embassy staff described the camp, 'In that camp men .. were compelled to sleep and live six in a box stall or so closely that the beds touched each other in hay-lofts, the outside walls of which were only four feet high'.
[Original reads: 'No. IA/57575. The interned shortly before marching off.']
