Carolyn is unsure where this photo was taken. It may be Ford Ord Barracks at the Presidio, prior to her uncle's assignment to the 87th. Another possibility is Camp McCain.

January 1945 at the Arc de Triomphe, Paris, France.

Photo from a GI tour of Paris, France. T/Sgt. Clements received a three day pass to either Paris or Luxembourg City, and can be seen in the center of the first row. There is at least one other 87th soldier in this group: on the front row, the third fellow from the left is a T/Sgt sporting the Golden Acorn.
