Christmas - December 1944
Just thinking of how my Uncle Leonard (TSgt, 120th Inf Rgt, 30th Ind Div) and many other Americans spent their holiday season in 1944.
The pics are of the card he sent my Grandma that year and him as a Platoon Sergeant taken at Malmedy after they'd freed the village during the Battle of the Bulge.
The impact of Americans like my Uncle Leonard and millions of others has been felt in Europe for many decades now.
