Stroop Photos - Dug-outs as Living Quarters

Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto were living in primitive conditions, especially during the Ghetto Uprising in the spring of 1943. 

This photograph, included in the Stroop Report, depicts one such place.  Its original caption, translated into English, is:  "Photos showing parts of so-called dwelling dug-outs."
