1965 Press Photo military exercises in Bavaria

It has happened in the military exercises in Bavaria. A tank drove down street and a hearse drove up street. A very macabre scene and the soldiers were presumable a little displaced! But "Nomen est Omen", it is? - The one and the other did their duty; the soldiers with their tank and the men with their hearse. The military exercises took place in Franken/ Bavaria/ Germany - October 25th till October 30th, and 25,000 officers and soldiers with about 6000 tanks took part. The "memorable" meeting took place at Cadolzburg Franken/ Germany.
