Undated photo of an antiaircraft unit of the Condor Legion during a deployment in the Spanish Civil War. Two men are aiming at ground target using a 2cm FLAK 39 in a sandbag position. An officer (left) picks the targets. On the left in the front, there are crates of ammunition. The soldiers are wearing M35 steel helmets. Seit Beginn des Spanischen Bürgerkriegs im Sommer 1936 unterstützten deutsche Soldaten die Franco-Truppen in der Legion Condor. Offiziell waren es nur Freiwillige, defacto bestand sie vor allem aus regulären deutschen Wehrmachtssoldaten.
