Police in the Russian city of
Kaliningrad (former Königsberg) detained a man dressed as a
Wehrmacht soldier in the early hours of the morning on 13 February 2011. The inebriated man, who was detained in the city's central square carrying a replica rifle, claimed he was Thomas von Lieben, Lance Corporal in Germany's wartime
Grossdeutschland Panzer Division.
The man was taken to the police station, where it transpired that he was a member of a local military history club. The man had taken part in a
reenactment of a WWII battle in
Bagrationovsk. On their way back, members of the club had consumed fair amounts of alcohol. Apparently carried away with his role, the man had put on his uniform and began posing for photos...
