The guy obviously has a head but his legs are crushed.
Well, I suppose you can't expect people smiling when they carry a corpse.
The Romanian Military Museum has much worse looking pictures of American pilots shot down over Romania -- some of them look like the men actually passed through a meat-grinder. There are also a lot of pictures of other mutilated men -- Romanian soldiers, Russian and German soldiers...
You can't have an accurate historical depiction of a war without photographing some of the casualties.
