Image text:

German soldiers ride a sleigh on a snow-covered road near the city of Demyansk. Above them, a flying JU 52 (the photo was taken in January 1942, so it does not represent a partial flight of the airlift, which had supplied the trapped soldiers for almost two months in the Pocket). Photo of the Propaganda Company (PK): war correspondent Beissel.
