Good evening, yarddog....((HUGS))...thank you so much for sharing your pictures. He does look very cold. God Bless all our military men and women, past and present.
My eyes went immediately to his hands...no gloves or mittens.
I just got in from a hair cut and stop by Costco to pick up refilled ink cartridges....my hands are frozen and hurt like heck as they warm up. It has been below zero all day, but now it has warmed up to 5 above and started snowing.
Thank you. I have a large number of WWII pictures. I don’t deserve much credit as they were gathered by the Daughter of one of my Fathers comrades in the 208th ECB.
She contacted all the ones still living but mostly from their children as many pictures as she could get. She then edited them, and created categories and copied them all onto DVDs. I think I sent her around 20 photos but there are over 600 in total. I try to give credit to whoever took each picture but sometimes I just don’t know.
Some are of poor quality but of such an interesting subject that I am glad I have them. One of the best but which I can’t seem to find is of their first meeting up with the Russians just outside Berlin in 1945.
