    Crimea

    Overview

    Description
    Map of the Crimea. German soldiers in the devastated city of Jevpatorija, where houses and other buildings have been destroyed. Fires still burn in the background as the Germans reconnoiter. Explosions and sniper fire. Germans fire a howitzer and toss grenades. They climb onto the tiled roof of one of the houses. A group of Soviets surrender. German soldiers toss a grenade into the basement of a structure; an injured man tries to crawl out of the building a moment later. More capture of Soviets. Pan across a group of them standing next to a wall, their arms raised.

    Film Provenance
    George R. Wheeler obtained this collection of wartime films from his late wife's first husband, Mr. Givens, who received the films from an acquaintance and watchmaker, Mr. Greenberg. Greenberg smuggled them out of Germany in the late 1930s or early 1940s. Mr. Wheeler, himself a member of the 94th Engineers Regiment during World War II, donated the 16mm films to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in October 2003.
    Note
    Videotape transfers are not split into two parts (A and B) like the film is. See USHMM Film ID 2693 for one video of contents.

    Original film canisters located in Museum offsite storage. Donor of the collection had no information as to the copyright status. The numbers found in the "Source Archive #" field of the USHMM database are the original German newsreel numbers and production dates, as found in Bucher, Peter. "Wochenschauen und Dokumentarfilme 1895-1950 im Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv" Koblenz: Bundesarchiv, 1984.
