Most of the black
and white pictures that will appear when you click on a battle site above
(green dots), or the text links below, were photographed by Major J.C.
Hatlem in the late 40s. They were referenced by General Dwight D. Eisenhower
and Carlton Joyce when they authored their books: "Crusade in Europe"
and "Stand Where They Fought" respectively. Notations on some
of the photos were made by General Eisenhower. For additional photo/battle
details, read the chapter (in brackets) in "Stand Where They Fought."
