[QUOTE="rhiwfield, post: 199820, member: 924"]Fig, you've nailed it! Well done! I thought the placard might be a direction sign, and I was playing with the map last night to try to work out the cathedral's entrance relative to Hohe Strasse. It would have been in the right direction, so I guess there would have been an arrow pointing right on the bottom of the sign, the sign already being partially dislodged by the seated soldiers' feet. So the travelling cinema would have set up in the Germania Theatre in Hohe Strasse for the benefit of Third Army soldiers. Thank you!![/QUOTE]
