WWII Photo Feature 20

This section features different pictures from our collection of WWII documents, publications, and photographs. As time permits, new feature pages will be added with additional pictures and documents.

 
After WWII ended, military equipment was applied to new work. This photograph shows a Sherman tank dozer doing construction work on the golf course at the U.S. military base in Bremen in 1945 during the U.S. occupation. The original photograph appeared in the booklet Bremen Port Command's "GI Paradise" which was published in February 1946 for U.S. troops on the base.

Original caption: Major General H. B. Vaughan, Jr., former Commanding General of Bremen Port Command, looks on as a Sherman tank clears the site for the ninth hole of the golf course at the Country Club.
