Pictures of my father and Don Potter during the war. They were in the 180th regiment, 45th division during world war two. Their division was statically wiped out ten times during the course of the war. They came mostly from rural Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado, and around the southwest, but received many replacements during the war.
