Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: Germany, an older couple in ragged clothing, watch the destruction of the war; the man says that they wont have anything left, while the woman expresses disappointment that their own children have caused this destruction. Buildings are in ruins and rats flee the destruction. Admiral Donitz tells Germany not to give up because he is the new Hitler. People in remaining German pockets agree and wonder where Hitler is.
Hitler, Adolf, 1889-1945; Donitz, Karl, 1891-1980
