hi bob always a pleasure to search for these old pictures - for your info the 3 rd is an original of the famous battle of the bulge - especially 'hurtenwald' where many fox holes are still in place today --best greetz from belgium

That 3rd shot is great. My dad was there in that mess. Artillery. Love pics from that time. Makes me think of my dad. 10 years gone.

That first picture captures just how far technology advanced in such a short period of time.

In the pictures with the prisoners at gun point, check out the jeep's body extension. I wonder if that is factory or a field mod? Looks pretty well done for a field mod. I have never seen anything like that on a military jeep, reminds me of the drop baskets for the back of a 4wheeler.
