My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

AP Photo Deal With Nazis-- Part 2
Photographs of Nazis would be credited to AP, Associated Press." They would also appear in German newspapers.
That would include:
** One of Hitler shaking Mussolini's hand shortly after an assassination attempt in 1944.
** Hitler drawing on a map.
** Hitler chatting with a blinded soldier
** Adolf Hitler shaking hands with a Hitler Youth soldier.
Distributed captions to the photos would not give credit to Nazi or SS photographers
At least 10,000 photos went back and forth under the agreement.
