1911tex Posted November 1, 2021 Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 335th Division, 8th Company. Photo was taken 12/20/44 at Marne, Belgium just prior to Rohr River. This was called "Battle of the Bulge" by the Americans. Photo was actually a clip from a 16mm news reel taken by an Army Journalist who was assigned to the 8th Company. The clip was also part of a later news commentary of this battle. The journalist sent him this clip after the war. This was the reason I purchased the Thompson "Tanker" in the previous posting. Thought this would be an interesting attachment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
