Is it normal for a guest house in Germany to display pictures of family members in Nazi uniforms?

I stayed at a guest house in a German town that is primarily patronized by German, as opposed to international, guests.

In an area leading to the guest rooms were placed several photos of an individual dressed in a Nazi military dress uniform, including wedding photo.

As a foreign visitor who has family murdered by the Nazis, these photos obviously made me uncomfortable.

But I wanted to ask: is such a display
normal in Germany? Would German visitors be phased by these photos? And if so, what do you suggest I do about it.

Thank you.

American woman quarantining on Pitcairn Island following possible Hantavirus exposure on MV Hondius cruise ship

This story just gets crazier.

From what I can piece together (see https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/pacific_french-polynesia/594933/hantavirus-contact-case-quarantined-in-pitcairn-after-short-transit-in-tahiti ), an American woman left the Hondius in St Helena on April 24th and then traveled in the following weeks to Pitcairn Island in the Pacific (via South Africa, San Francisco, Tahiti and Mangareva). Because of the possible exposure, she is now isolating/quarantining on Pitcairn.

Must be a country counter.

Also, what do you think it says about our world today that a Hantavirus outbreak on a ship in the South Atlantic could possibly reach Pitcairn in the South Pacific (an island with 35 to 50 residents) in under a month. So now, not only the most isolated South Atlantic Islands (Tristan da Cunha and St Helena), but also one of the most isolated South Pacific islands (Pitcairn) is now dealing with this outbreak in under a month

Does anyone know why 30 to 40 people disembarked the Hondius in St Helena on April 24th?

I have not seen any reason given in any news source as to why so many people disembarked the ship in St Helena and traveled on to Johannesburg by air.

It seems that was not a natural stopping point for the cruise, and the hantavirus outbreak was not confirmed onboard for more than another week, until May 2nd.

So why did so many people leave the ship at that time? Were they ill? Were they scared? Or were they scheduled to leave the ship at that port all along?

Anyone know?
