A postcard showing two soldiers from the Afrikakorps listening to a WR1-T. Notice the taped up speaker and ventilation openings. Imagine the weather temperature that required these openings to have been taped. Also notice that the control labels on the radio are black, which means that this WR1-T is painted with desert camouflage beige colors. |

| An interesting photo showing a group of men and two officers resting and listening to a either a WR1-T or a WR1-P entertainment receiver on the horse-drawn wagon. The officers seem to be engrossed in writing either situational reports or letters home. |
