French prisoners are busy turning over a flower bed in preparation for spring planting outside of the prison camp at Frankfurt-am-Main. They will probably plant food crops to meet the growing food shortages in Germany. These crops might be used to supplement the prison camp\u27s food supplies or the POW\u27s may be working for a private farmer. They work under the watchful eye of a German Landsturm sentry to the right.https://scholarworks.wmich.edu/wwi_pow_camps/1980/thumbnail.jp
