Thanks for putting the two together. It all makes sense now, and narrows my guesses to two. The someone in common is the guy speaking to Hitler, and he is either:

 

a) Hitler's DC, "No, no, we can defend against the 'single wing,' but the Americans are using the 'T formation' now.

 

OR

 

b) Hitler's psychic, "If we don't turn this thing around, the Americans will be playing their Army-Navy game here in Berlin this year."

 

LOL. And I was feeling dumb too.

Getting closer, but not Berlin.

Thanks for the hint. Nuremberg. Can you tell us anything about the game played in the photo? Looks '60's-ish. Great clue trail.

 

Quick, say Reichsparteitagsgelände fast three times. :lol:

That is a football game played by Nurnberg American High School versus another American high school team, like Munich, Frankfurt, Heidelberg, etc. Hitler's rally stadium was occupied by the American military from about 1945 until 1996ish. My high school had all of the home football games on this field, as well as our home soccer games and track meets.

So cool. My dad was an AFN / RFE guy in the early - mid '60s. I used to tag along with him and his buds when they road tripped to support the Rhein-Main AB HS teams. Some of my first sports fan memories. I had forgotten those. With Father's Day coming up, one more thing to be grateful for. Thanks for the post.

Great info.

Ahh--a fellow "Military Brat"! I remember frequenting Rhein Main Air Base so many, many times. Passageway to "the World".

You are correct, my friend. The body hanging on the far left is a woman, Mary Surratt.

 

Here's a close-up. Sorry about my morbid curiosity.

Well, as someone who knew right away what the photo was, I'm sure not going to condemn you for "morbid curiosity"!
