Support as it is a stunning and evocative image telling a story within itself. -- Peulle (talk) 14:00, 12 March 2018 (UTC)- Support --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 14:51, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- Support Normally I don't vote for old photos or paintings but this one deserves a promotion. Well spotted, Peulle! And I hope that there won't be any stupid wars in Europe again. --Basotxerri (talk) 18:42, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

Neutral Good technical quality, not very original as dozens of such pictures exist. I have suggested a crop, please see note. Anyway, a good message: this is how war is, yesterday and today...--Jebulon (talk) 09:51, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
- While I would call your suggested crop a good choice on other photos, I don't feel good about doing this to an historic image of this importance. It should be kept in as original a condition as possible, IMO - perhaps digital quality restoration could be considered, but I would not touch the composition.--Peulle (talk) 11:28, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
