A German naval officer among officers in white

In a close group on an open square, a blond officer in the dark uniform of the German navy, the eagle and swastika on his right breast, clenches a fist as he talks with two older officers in white tropical uniforms and white-covered caps; a sailor stands behind them and civilians crowd round. The source records the crew of the Graf Spee arriving in Argentina and being interned; the scene appears to belong to that arrival. Captain Hans Langsdorff shot himself in Buenos Aires on 20 December 1939.
