Digging in the channel bed, Reich Labour Service 1937

Looking steeply down from the top of an embankment of loose stones, two young men in shirtsleeves and trousers stand in a narrow, wet trench at the foot of the slope and dig with long-handled shovels, throwing gravel up onto the bank; another man works further along. Konstantin Hierl called them soldiers of labour, and on parade they presented polished spades as soldiers present arms.
