Photo of recovering of victims at Malmedy
€150.00
Photo of recovering of victims at Malmedy. Note helmet marked AAAO (39th Infantry Regiment, 9th Division) and bumper marking of the 3060th Quartermaster Graves Registration Service Company. The 4th Platoon drew the assignment of recovering, processing, and identifying the bodies. The platoon arrived in the Malmedy area and entered the massacre site on January 13. Fortunately, snow had fallen several times since the massacre and a fresh layer covered the bodies. Temperatures had hovered below freezing, and the Germans had made no attempt to bury the bodies. These factors combined to keep the remains remarkably preserved. Operations began at the massacre field on January 14, 1945, and ended late the next day. Original that measures about 26 x 21 centimeters. Very good condition.
