This is German propaganda photo displayed in Switzerland by the German Embassy. It shows Americans and sailors of other nationalities captured by the German raider "Wolf". Several of the men in this picture are now in German prison camp camps. They were the first Americans fed by the American Red Cross in Switzerland. Directly under the arrow head is "Dad Moore" an old sea skipper who was captured near New Zealand. "Dad" and the following other American skippers of the old school do much to amuse the American aviators now prisoners at Villingen by their droll stories of the sea. Capt. Olsen, Capt. Trudgett, First Officer Moore, First Officer Buckhardt, and Second Officer Bowman. "These old fellows might have stepped out of the pages of a sea story of the last century" says Aviator Harold Willis of Boston, who escaped into Switzerland by swimming the Rhine

First American Red Cross food package sent to American prisoners in Germany. The contents of this package have now been hanged and four different packages go forward to American prisoners each "food month." American prisoners now get regular Army food, carefully varied and chosen by the American Red Cross in Switzerland. Food luxuries are thrown in for good measure. In addition clothing of every description is sent to our boys from regular Army outfits to civilian suits. One American prisoner in Germany who has the freedom of Berlin recently was sent a badly-needed "swallow-tail coat" and two golf balls but is not known if the two golf balls sent by a Red Cross Official from his own layout, were cut open by suspicious German "censors"

He was felled from behind, and his gun taken from him upon reaching Switzerland on Oct. 11, 1918. Frank said: "I'm going right back to the trenches as soon as I reach France, and believe me I'll get a few more before the war's over"
