Scenes after the destruction of the Tangermünde Bridge over the River Elbe in Germany at the end of World War II in Europe. Wide view of heavily damaged Tangermunde Bridge. It had been blown-up by German forces a month prior during their retreat toward Berlin. American soldier wearing garrison cap or side cap stands on bridge checking papers of German civilians who are attempting to cross the bridge in advance of incoming Soviet forces (preparing to surrender to American and British allies rather than to Soviet forces). German civilians walk along the damaged bridge. The twisted metal requires that the citizens hold on tightly to their belongings and to small children during the crossing, to avoid falling into the river. A young man holds a young child and belongings as he crosses carefully. Other scenes of men and women holding small children and babies, and luggage and belongings as they cross.
