Description
Russian prisoners work in the Records Office in the prison camp at Purgstall. While some of the POW's are working, one is warming water on the wood stove, another is drinking a cup of tea, and one appears to be dealing with an itch in his boot with a stick. The Records Office was an important part of the general administration of a prison camp.
