Photo taken by a member of my Father's Battalion. I guess these are staff cars. Unsure of make, model etc.
I wonder if that is a “former” German military car in the picture?
My dad was there. He told me they ran out of the barracks with their mattresses on their backs.
Photos? Only one?
Fat officer and driver standing outside his jeep admiring a mountain scenic spot:
"Beautiful view. Is there one for the enlisted men? "
Just as those soldiers are doing, I once stood in awe and observed a volcano in Guatemala as it erupted. It was all fun and games until I realized what goes up must come down when the hot lava rocks crashed down beside me, and added to the lava rock rubble pile I was standing on which was just like the lava rock rubble pile these soldiers are standing on.
Believe me, the lava rock rubble pile these soldiers are standing on is about to get much larger.
Awesome pic. Thanks!

That was a WW2 MOAB going off.....!
Soldier behind him: "Nah, that's just about right."
A bunch of U.S. Navy guys commented on seeing that.
My step-brother flew off the Eisenhower and told me stories about Mt. Etna all the way back in the 1970s!
