A S/Sgt reads the orders of the day to a group of medical personnel of the 78th Armored Medical Battalion (8th Armd Div). Note the fairly large Geneva Convention symbols painted on the helmets, 3 white circles with Red Cross, all markings look identical. (Didier Andres Collection, WWII US Medical Research Centre)

Dwight D. Eisenhower

My dad pointing to his brother Cline in photo. My uncle, Shufford Cline Rowe, 82nd Airborne, jump master, far right with Gen. Eisenhower receiving the orders June 5th, 1944. Cline survived D-Day, was color guard in VE Day parade, was honor guard for Eisenhower, and career army. He has never been identified in this famous picture and that is a shame. My dad is also WWII veteran and will be 91 this year. Just wanted to share and thank you so much for this Memorial to our heroes! - Marilyn Rowe
