Description
German propaganda photograph captured by the RAF.
RAF Caption: "They won’t let themselves be beaten by the Anglo-American terror pilots.
Berlin housewives put up temporary cooking facilities, in front of their homes, on which they prepare meals for their families."
Two women are cooking in the street on wood fired stoves and another is preparing food on a small table. The need to cook outside is possibly a consequence of the damage to power and gas supplies from allied bombing.
