A youth group listens to an American officer in Frankfurt

In a room with drawings pinned to the wall, two young women in patterned dresses sit at the front of a bench, hands folded, while young men in jackets and ties crowd behind them; all look toward a man in uniform whose head and shoulder fill the edge of the picture. The source calls the gathering a meeting of the youth group The Friends of America, where a girl puts questions and an American officer addresses the group. The American military government encouraged such clubs and discussion circles as part of its programme to re-educate German youth.
