French and Belgian war prisoners and interned civilians enjoy glasses of milk at the canteen/milk hall at the prison camp in Cassel. In 1916, when this photograph was taken, food was relatively plentiful in Germany and POW's could obtain a variety of foods in prison camps. Prisoners at Cassel wore white armbands for identification purposes on their upper arms.
