Marion :: hullo ... I have been researching my own father's war service and
came across your site ... My dad served in the third division and was a
photographer for the third signal corps.
Some of the bridge photos on your site, in fact, may have been taken by him.
I have a collection of over 700 photos he took from southern france to
salzburg austria ...
In the collection are several pictures of bridges over the rhine ... At
worms and bobbenheim ... Including the alexander patch bridge ....
A couple photos show some of the engineers working on the bridge ... I am
curious as to where you acquired the rhine bridge photos and on in
particular of patch and devers in the snow ??
