This shows a group of Easy company soldiers in Eindhoven, Holland on 18 September, 1944. Although the photo comes from the Don Pratt Museum collection at Ft Campbell, it was most likely taken by a Dutch civilian. Included in the group are Amos Taylor, McLaurin(?), Jim Alley, Bill Kiehn (KIA in Alsace), and Campbell T. Smith. The noncom with his back to the camera has been identified as (then) Sgt Carwood Lipton. Per Steph Leenhouwers, Dutch Airborne friend in Eindhoven, the photo was taken in the Hertogstraat.

Winters和Speirs,摄于2001年6月6日,Utah Beach

At Utah Beach on 6 June, 2001, two legendary figures met again for the first time since 1945. Historian Jake Powers was aware this moment was coming, and he was on the spot with his camera when Dick Winters (left), and Ronald 'Sparky'Speirs shared their first moments reunited. Knowing the life and death situations they often faced, we can only marvel at what thoughts and emotions must have surged through them at this meeting.

Thanks to Jake for sharing this priceless moment with us.
