Speaking of Trading Posts, this one in Blanket Texas. It was in the maneuver area of the 36th Division in WW11. Camp Bowie near Brownwood Texas. While out on maneuvers we would stop by for a coke & a Snicker bar. I wonder if it is still there??

chasseurs had crossed the rhine to make contact with the bridgehead

the 3/regiment tiralleuse algerien had established opposite speyer. a

pontoon bridge was then build by the 101. regiment de genie ( a regiment

in the french army is only about battalion size.) this is just some

additional info on rod o`barr s posting on dec. 23. 06 hoping to have
