Ukrainian serving with the German army, Russian Front, 1941-1944
Ukrainian serving with the German army, Russian Front, 1941-1944. Detail from a German propaganda poster.

This was paricularly the case in the western Ukraine, which the Soviets occupied in 1939. Under German occupation, Ukrainian nationalist partisans fought on both sides

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Ukrainian soldier serving with the German army on the Russian Front during World War II. The image is a detail from a German propaganda poster, showcasing the complex dynamics of collaboration and nationalism that existed during this tumultuous period. In 1941, when Germany invaded the Soviet Union, many Ukrainians initially saw them as liberators from what they perceived as an oppressive Russian regime. This sentiment was particularly strong in western Ukraine, which had been occupied by the Soviets since 1939. Under German occupation, Ukrainian nationalist partisans fought on both sides of the conflict. The photograph depicts a male Ukrainian soldier observing through a telescope, symbolizing his role as an observer amidst this chaotic war zone. It offers us a glimpse into his perspective and mindset during those challenging times. The image also highlights how propaganda played a significant role in shaping public opinion during World War II. The Germans utilized such posters to promote their cause and gain support for their actions among local populations. Overall, this print serves as a powerful reminder of the complexities and contradictions that emerged during wartime collaborations between different nations and ideologies. It invites us to reflect on history's nuances while reminding us of the impact that propaganda can have on people's perceptions and actions.
