That's a meme? I've never seen that photo before in my life and I'm pretty aware of most memes.
I highly doubt that - most memes are short-lived, community specific or barely identifiable to outsiders. But you are, of course, unaware of memes you are not aware of.

#22> The photo was taken about coordinates 50.29092467073664, 4.893099128823844 near modern Wallonia, Belgium on the Meuse River. Great writeup, but I did have a little chuckle reading "it was taken about near here", followed by coordinates precise enough to identify a single atom. https://xkcd.com/2170/
We’ll need to give each atom a unique ID. That would solve the problem.

#28Germans pioneers wore white uniforms? That sounds like the worst possible colour for digging ditches, recovering tanks or camouflage (if it isn't snowing). Why would they do that? Did Hugo Boss do the design?
A prisoner’s uniform needs to be cheap, distinctive, and easy to spot it doesn’t need to be clean.

Edit: ops, that joke wasn’t clear. A prisoner’s uniform needs to be cheap, distinctive, and easy to spot it doesn’t need to be clean.
