St. Sauveur Le Vicomte

“June 25, 1944. St. Sauveur Le Vicomte, Normandy, France. Our first hospital site – just arrived at the field. The town was one mile away, and the Germans were shelling it with 88’s. More or less constantly. Just after the picture was taken, our P-47 dive bombed their gun positions. We didn’t know what the hell was going on, and everyone was scared. German held ground was only 2 ½ miles away!”
