Original historic description: 

Bippa
Devastated Krupp Works in Essen
This aerial photo, taken from an artillery observation plane of Ninth U.S. Army's 79th Division, shows to the damage wrought to the Krupp stool plant at Essen, Germany, which was ponded by Allied air attacks and artillery of the Ninth Army before the city fell April 10, 1945, to troops of the 17th U.S. Airborne Division. Krupp was especially important to the enemy because so many other German armamonts factories were dependent on it for parts, such as armored platos and crankshafts. U.S. soldiers met little enemy resistence in the city, which had a peacetime population of 670,000. Essen is situated in the midst of one of the world's richest hard coal deposits and has been called the arsenal of Germany. U.S. Signal Corps Photo ETO-HQ-45-31874. Serviced by London OWI to list B certified as passed by shaef censor
