Photo Gallery - American 6AD Soldier (probably CCB HQ Co.)
We have two photos of this American soldier.
Both are extracted from group photos taken outside Jeanne's house.
He looks facially similar to the helmeted 'guard in the yard'
but there are no rank markings on his shirt sleeves unlike a known soldier
of CCB HQ Co. whose shirt did have them.
He does have an armored patch on his left shoulder,
presumably for the 6th Armored Division.
Again, his location suggests he was a member of the 6AD unit billeted in Jeanne's hamlet,
namely the Headquarters and Headquarters Company of Combat Command B.
Beside him on the grass, two books are just visible
and it's tempting to think they might be the old Diary
and grandmother's cookbook!
But it's probably just wishful thinking.
If anyone can identify this soldier, we'd appreciate hearing from you.
