One side of a stereograph of Hauptmann Bernhard Jope (left) with another Luftwaffe officer with the rank of Leutnant. Original caption in German reads: "Hauptmann Jope, Staffelkapitän eines Fernkampfgeschwaders, der u.a. den engl. 42000 to Dampfer 'Empress of Britain' im Atlantik in Brand geworfen hat" (Captain Jope, squadron commander of a ranged bomber squadron, has set fire to the 42,000 ton British steamer 'Empress of Britain' in the Atlantic). The picture was taken in the period of 1941-1943.
