German prisoners, some of them wounded, were brought back to Navy ships headed for Britain and prisoner of war camps. Many of these were Poles and conscripts from the Balkans and Russia, forced into the polyglot Nazi army. For the most part there was among them a noticeable absence of that sullen defiant attitude of the deep-dyed Nazi in these first prisoners, and many of them frankly seemed glad to be out of it. The captured officers, true to from, were quartered separate quarters with bunks. There were also on board several civilian prisoners, among whom were two women. The artist sketched while accompanying a British intelligence officer who questioned prisoners.
