My mistake this is the Wedding photo my Uncle held until he passed on June 6, 1944 on his landing craft on Omaha Beach. When I posted the memorial for my Uncle they wanted photos of the trooper, not his wife. This lead me to send the photo with just him on it. This one with his wife my Aunt Betty was the one he had in his pocket and asked his friend to give him as he died.

My Uncle Donald Weisel died on June 6, 1944 on Omaha Beach.

He was nearly cut in half by a German Machine gun. He asked his buddy to get his photo of his wife Betty out of his pocket and died holding their wedding photo.

Major General Clarence R. Huebner in dragon's teeth

As the commander of the "Big Red One" in World War II, Huebner led the invasion at Omaha Beach, forged the breakout at Saint-Lô, repelled the German counteroffensive at Mortain, and pursued the German Army across France, which culminated in the Battles of Aachen and the Huertgen Forest. In January 1945, he took command of the V Corps, which he directed from the Rhine to the Elbe, where his troops made the first contact with the Red Army.
