Title A name given to the resource Prisoner of War Index Card for German POW Walter Schmitt Subject The topic of the resource POW Index Card created by British authorities for his file. Description An account of the resource Born in Wesel Germany in 1922 he was a university student when he entered military service. His religion is listed as Catholic. His rank is listed as Obergefreiter. The red stamp reads something in German which is likely "Application for compensation under the KgfEG. Delivered on April 30, 1954 to (some center unreadable) in Krefeld" Krefeld appears to be his hometown as he has listed his father's address in Krefeld as next of kin. One of the two photos appears to be torn off from the file where it was glued. It was likely a front angle mugshot. Unclear as to why it was torn off the file. The back of the card has some of his movements recorded. Starting with Camp 180 in Trumpington Camp, Trumpington, Cambridgeshire the transferred on the 5th of March 1946 to Newton Camp, Newton-with-Scales, Kirkham, Lancashire. He was then transferred Warth Mills Camp 177 to Brookmill Camp 168 on the 15th of April 1947. Finally on May 1st, 1947 he was transferred from Camp 168 to Hull for repatriation. There is also an additional stamp under authority and some German writing the meaning of which is not immediately apparent. https://cicmuseum.org/files/original/72cb59f4d1a2fa3974c441665b18bf64.jpg dc9a23913ab3341e91afcdb763cf97ce https://cicmuseum.org/files/original/2d4def32c67d29879ef704ec8b07b669.jpg d104fc09625c929d843da564dafb5ee9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource British Propaganda Leaflet to Italian Forces in East Africa (No. 29) Subject The topic of the resource This leaflet was also likely dropped on Italian forces garrisoned at Massawa or another location in Eritrea. It mentions the loss of Kismayo and Mogadishu which was taken by the 11th and 12th African division during February 1941. The content of the leaflet talks of the threat to Italian women and children from continued fighting and would seem to imply one of their colonial strongholds where this would be the case. Description An account of the resource English translation of leaflet text: "To the Italians of East Africa Wishing to avoid unnecessary bloodshed, we invite you to lower your weapons. You are now entirely isolated. Your ships in Kismayo and Mogadishu have been taken. You are stuck in the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea. The activity of the Abyssinian patriots rapidly spreads to every mile of the advance of our troops. Consider our words carefully, we address you for reasons of humanity. If you continue the desperate struggle you will do nothing but waste useful lives and at the same time expose your women and children to the deprivations and dangers inseparable from war operations."

Title A name given to the resource British Propaganda Leaflet to Italian forces in East Africa (No. 100) Subject The topic of the resource Given the places named in the leaflet it was likely dropped on Italian forces garrisoned in Massawa under Admiral Mario Bonetti. What's particularly interesting is the British claim that they are the only ones maintaining "public order" which could be construed in this context as control over the native Eritrean population. The veiled threat of the leaflet is that unless the Italians surrender, they will be cut off from support and abandoned to fend for themselves against the local population. Description An account of the resource English translation of leaflet text: "Warning! Your retreat continues south from Asmara to Tigray. The war is over, but your commanders, always ready to sacrifice you and your families, pretend to maintain the resistance. We therefore warn you that any movement of organized groups on the Asmara-Massawa and Asmara-Macalle roads will be considered as a hostile movement and will be attacked by our air force. Leave the streets. Wait for our arrival and surrender to us. Remember that today we are the only ones guaranteeing public order in Italian Eastern Africa."

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Attack on a British Tank on the road to Shwedaung, Burma Japanese Propaganda Photo Subject The topic of the resource The photo shows a group of several Japanese soldiers attacking an an American lend-lease M3 Stuart Tank of the British 7th Armoured Brigade that is on fire. What's interesting in the description is the emphasis on the triumph of the heroic Japanese soldier against mechanical and technical superiority. Later war US propaganda leaflets would directly highlight the absurdity of this belief, stating that Japanese fighting spirit could not compensate for lack or ammunition, food, or air superiority. This early war photo goes so far as to celebrate a soldier taking on a tank armed only with a bayonet. Rather than being horrified that their leaders would send soldiers into battle so poorly equipped, the Japanese public was being told to glorify the heroic sacrifices made under such circumstances. Additionally, no mention is made of the Burma Independence Army and their assistance to the Japanese during the battle. British loses are also significantly exaggerated with only 10 tanks and 2 field guns being lost in the battle. Description An account of the resource Translation of Japanese text on the reverse: "Machine or Spirit, getting go up to enemy tank The landing and battle of Kota Bharu was unparalleled in our military history. One of our divine solider threw oneself onto the enemy pillbox, confronting the blazing enemy gun ports with flesh and blood. On the Burma front, a solider with only a bayonet grappled with an enemy tank. No, its not limited to Kota Bharu or Burma. Ever since receiving the order to defeat the US and British forces, the battles of machines and machines have unfolded countless times in Hawaii, the Philippines, the Greater East Asia Sea, and all operational areas advancing under the Imperial Banner. In every battle, victory has consistently been on outside. A deadly struggle between solider to solider- once again the song of victory was with the imperial army. The battle between machines and humans-once again, facing the life-and-death determination of Imperial Army soldiers, their unwavering loyalty and remarkable spirit it was difficult to counter enemy’s mechanical strength. Breaking conventional wisdom and surpassing science, the fiery spirit of attack overwhelmed the power of machines. This is also one of those scenes—a valuable close-up attack on tanks captured by the camera of the head office correspondent near Shwedaung in northern Burma. Thanks to the brave battle of these soldiers, the Harada Unit was awarded a letter of commendation from the Iida Commander-in-Chief of the Burma Front. On October 13th, they achieved the honor of being recognized for their distinguished service. After the capture of Rangoon, the Harada Unit reversed its course and advanced to Shwedaung on the morning of March 19th. On the following 30th day, they blocked the retreat route of the enemy's force. Following an intense battle lasting tens of hours, they captured and annihilated the British mechanized unit consisting of around 60 to 70 tanks, armored vehicles, over ten artillery pieces, and around a hundred automobiles."

He was a conscript who was born to a ethnically German family in Nieder-Ullersdorf (Dolní Oldřiš). This was part of the Sudetenland that was annexed by Germany under the 1938 Munich agreement. He was involved in the invasion of Poland, the invasion of the Netherlands, the battle of Dunkirk, and the battle for France. He was killed at 28 years old during the invasion of Russia under operation Barbarossa. The report from the Volksbund indicates that he died somewhere near “Nowel” which most likely refers to the village now called Nevel (Белор. Невель, Russian/Belarusian: Невель) in Pinsk District, Brest Region, Belarus — a small settlement southwest of Pinsk near the Belarus–Ukraine border (approx. 51.93°N, 25.85°E).

Title A name given to the resource Pferdepass (Horse Passport) Occupied Poland Description An account of the resource This is a WWII Pferdepass issued by the Nazi occupation government in Poland. Similar to a Wehrpass for horses it appears that a version of this document is still used today. The document has most of the text written in German with Polish translations underneath. This particular horse lived in Nienadówka which fell under Rzeszów County (Renamed "Reichshof" by the occupying government, both the original Polish name and German name are used side by side here). This was administratively part of the Kraków District for the German occupying forces. The horse was originally registered at the relevant Ministry of Livestock registry in Sokołów. It was first registered on September 11th 1941 and later had a change of ownership June 23rd 1943. The listed owner is likely Michal Groz (or possibly Gróg – handwriting is a bit stylized). The horse appears to have been inspected at least three times by military inspectors in 1942, 1943, and finally in 1945, but there's no corresponding record of military service so for whatever reason either the Wehrmacht did not want it or failed to record its service history in the book. Interestingly, there's a "Lot Price" list on the back cover with corresponding breakdowns in Polish Zloty per piece. This appears to be the cost of the booklet. The average number of horses in the German army during WWII was over 1 million where they served an important logistical function.

Title A name given to the resource Photo of a young Japanese woman reviewed by G2 Military Intelligence from US 25th Infantry Division Description An account of the resource Photo of a smiling Japanese woman that was taken from an Imperial Japanese soldier by someone from the US 25th Infantry Division. Stamp on the back of the photo reads "This item has been examined and all military information extracted. Language section, G-2, 25th Inf Div. Date 26 Jan 45 Initials (Unreadable signature). The date is difficult to read but is most likely January 26th 1945 when the division was fighting through central Luzon in the Philippines, moving through Binalonan and occupying Umingan, Lupao, and San Jose, destroying Japanese armor in the area. This photo was likely taken along with a group of letters or other documents from the soldier who was either captured or killed and then turned over to someone in the unit's military intelligence G2 for review. The reviewing G2 soldier was likely a Japanese American assigned to the unit by MIS (Military Intelligence Service). This photo was acquired alone with no material context so like many captured period photos the featured woman will likely never be identified.
