12SSHJPOWAbused.jpg‎ (429 × 409 pixel, file size: 65 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

A captured Panzergrenadier of the Hitlerjugend taken by a Canadian Intelligence Unit during the fighting for Caen. The official Public Archives of Canada caption for this photo taken a month after the activities in question, contains no information about the prisoner other than his division. It is often speculated that his injuries were the result of a beating in spite of the fact it was taken well after the killing of Canadians had ceased.

Photo taken August 9th, 1944

This is a Public Archives of Canada image, copyright expired.

This Canadian work is in the public domain in Canada because its copyright has expired for one of the following reasons:

1. it was subject to Crown copyright and was first published more than 50 years ago, or

it was not subject to Crown copyright, and

2. it is a photograph that was created before January 1, 1949, or

3. the creator died more than 50 years ago.

The media description page should identify which reason applies, and should also have a rationale explaining the copyright status of the work in the U.S. Some Canadian photographs created before 1949 may be copyrighted outside of Canada, such as e.g. the images of Yousuf Karsh.
