Photographs - Page 50
The following photos were sent to me
by Jim Lankford. These are scans of the original photos used to
illustrate the book by Petersen and Pence, "Ordeal in the Vosges".
Thanks to Jim's hard work, Eugene Petersen, and the daughter of the late Charlie
Pence, Sharon Pence Honer, who helped locate these photos, these
"long lost" items are now available to view. The originals will be
kept at the US Army Heritage and Education Center, formerly the MHI,
with the 70th Infantry Division records available there. Eugene
Petersen has graciously given his permission to post them on our
site. Jim began
his search for these photos while writing an article on MOH winner
George Turner, who was at Philippsbourg with our 275th Trailblazers.
