Veloren which means 'lost' depicts a German dispatch rider trying to find a safe route out of Caan and back to his unit headquaters. He recieves directions from a military policeman.

Motorcycle enthusiasts will be interested in the machine pictured which was a 350cc two stroke Triumph produced in Nurnberg by Triumph Werke Nurnberg.
