| The only man left: Field Marshal Keitel sits down to surrender |
 |
| This is what remains of a German Personnel Carrier with ten barreled mortar |
 |
| Brandenburg Gate, once a symbol of a proud nation lies broken as the conquerors swarm around |
 |
| Berlin in May 1945: A ruined city |
 |
| Broken, defeated men: Captured pilots of the Luftwaffe |
 |
| Keitel walks to surrender |
 |
| The guns fell silent in Berlin: Last men of the Wehrmacht to surrender |
 |
| The fight is over. The remaining German soldiers who were left alive surrender to triumphant Russians |
 |
| The children of Joseph Goebbels: He killed them so that they would not fall into Russian hands |
 |
| The Russians start distributing food to starving people of Berlin |
 |
| The skies over Berlin: Once Luftwaffe planes proudly flew; now Russian planes dominate the air over the once-proud capital of the Third Reich |
 |
| Death and destruction in the East Prussian city of Pilau |
 |
| "Dragon's Teeth': German fortifications to ward off the approaching Russians, west of Berlin |
 |
| A column of German POWS. Once they were hailed as heroes by the people; now they get sad or indifferent stares |
 |
| A Russian soldier takes over the traffic east of Berlin |
 |
| Soviet tanks trundle through Berlin |
 |
| Russian soldiers march into Vienna, as Austria too fell. April 1945 |
 |
| Berlin in April end, 1945 |
