The Children of Martin Bormann
Not the Von Trapp Family Singers, but just as heartbreaking!
These are eight of the Bormanns’ ten children - what it was all for, though in the end it came to nothing.
All that hope, all that joy, all that bravery and sacrifice, all that warmth and beauty and purity and loveliness, all thrown away and burnt by an implacable Enemy whose heart knows only darkness and emptiness!
Weep for them, but also pray for their love.
And remember always!
The Spirit of Germany
Actually this picture is only here because it looks like Germany and they look like German youths from a certain era - though of course the whole is also strangely timeless!
Beyond that, I don't really know, who they are, where this is from or when.
