Photos by Robert Capa, American soldier killed by a German sniper.
Until the very last moments of the war Allied soldiers were losing their lives in Europe.
A machine gunner tasked with providing covering fire for the 2nd. U.S. Infantry advancing across a bridge in Leipzig, lies dead in a pool of his own blood, shot by a German sniper.
This is part of a sequence shot by Robert Capa (April 18, 1945).
