On Friday my wife and I joined my Dad and my brother to visit the U.S. Army Airborne & Special Operations Museum in Fayettevile, NC. Here are a couple of phrase books from the 40's on display in the museum.
A small booklet giving details of the many attractions of holidays in Hungary; undated it is very much in the contemporary design style of the mid-1930s when the Hungarian tourist authorities used many such publicity images.
This artwork, of a couple in national or folk costume, is taken from a 1931 poster designed by artist and designer Arisztid Uher (1914 - 1945?). The cover appears to have been used, as was the poster, in a variety of languages.

This photograph of a wrecked crane and barge was probably taken after 2 August 1918, when the Australian forces recaptured Peronne from the Germans. As the Germans were forced to retreat, they destroyed equipment as well as devastating towns and villages.
Peronne had been held by the Allies early in March 1918, until 23 March when it fell in the face of the German advance. It was recaptured in August as part of the Allied retaliation which led to the end of the war. The history of Peronne is symbolic of the very small territorial gains for which so many lives were lost on both sides.

Schadenfreude (German): pleasure derived from observing the misfortune of a person you don’t like.

If your not into war movies you might not like this one? This is the German version of what it was really like on the Russian front in winter. This is a very gripping movie that had me reaching for a jumper.
All actors unknown to me yet well acted thoughout.
An imposing stone building with arcaded ground floor stands in ruins. Neo-classical pillars and heraldic beasts are carved on the frontage. A painted notice in German is propped up on the first floor. It reads, "Nicht argern nur wundern!' ( Don't be angry - only marvel). This may reflect the distaste that some Germans had for the destruction they were ordered to make.

VISITING MOTHER KRUMMEL, RICE, KANSAS: Engel Christiana Ernestine Kirchoff married Lewis Krummel in Hamburg, Germany in 1877. By 1884, they had four children, Charles 6, Frieda 4, Amanda 1 and baby Max. They left Hamburg that year and sailed to America. They settled in Rice, Kansas. Many German immigrants lived there. Lewis necame a tenant farmer. In 1890, he bought the land he farmed. The Krummels all became naturalized citizens. When WWI started, they never spoke German again.
This shows a cavalry unit in a ruined French town. The men have dismounted and a few stand by the horses, while the rest are looking at the ruins. The German policy of devastating towns and villages as they retreated was designed to demoralise both the former inhabitants and the Allied troops.
A notice on the wall in German reads, 'zum Tilloy - Kronprinz Rupprecht weg und zer [?]ossen strasse.' Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria (1869-1955) was a professional soldier and commander of the 6th German Army.
