The Ohrdruf Photos

This site covers the discovery of photos of several Nazi concentration camps by another blogger and the history behind them. These lost photos from World War II show what American troops found when they liberated the camps at Ohrdruf and at Schwabmunchen 2. They are extremely graphic and not for small children.

The Odyssey of the Fifth Field Artillery Group

This is the unit history of a unique organization, a millitary experiment. These men fought, bled, and died to keep America free. They have been called “the greatest generation”. Read this, in their own words, and judge for yourself. This history is scanned from the original text. Any errors are mine. Any quaint phrasings are from the text. My father helped write the history as he had lived every moment of it in World War II.
