EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense focus of an Austrian policeman as he practices with his Rast & Gasser 8mm revolver during the Anschluss in 1938. The Anschluss, or the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany, marked the beginning of World War II in Europe. In the image, the policeman is seen in a dimly lit room, with a single window casting a narrow beam of light across the scene. The room is cluttered with various weapons and equipment, adding to the sense of urgency and preparation. The policeman's expression is determined and serious, as he carefully aligns the sights on his revolver and pulls the trigger. The Rast & Gasser 8mm revolver, a popular weapon among Austrian law enforcement at the time, was a reliable and powerful sidearm. Its use during the Anschluss highlights the precarious and uncertain circumstances that Austrian policemen faced during this period of history. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the role that ordinary men and women played in the events leading up to and during World War II, and the sacrifices they made in the face of adversity.
