It says that it's loot from the Russians. The cover is movable and can change positions to your liking. In German of course

I am not familiar with this stuff, does someone know why it states it is censored (lower left corner)? Did they remove dead bodies from the photograph or something?

Could be just a marker that it went through the censoring process, that is, some official gave his ok.

I think military censors are wary of depiction of war material, as they may be giving away secrets.

Paul Hoffman was a photographer and publisher from Berlin, I think the photos are pre marked so the censors would not have to individually vet them.

Decent way to advance in trench warfare I guess. You'd find out if it was grenade proof pretty quick when you got close....not to mention enfilade fire
