Nice shot of an early type Carbine on the soldier getting his "food", just after or at the tail-end of the Ardennes counteroffensive January 1945 in Belgium :

Terrific pic!

Is that Audie Murphie, about 4 back, looking at the camera?;-)

Anyway it makes me cold just looking at those guys.

Thanks,

Me too Ron, it reminds me of the bad old days at Lake Tahoe, with 25 feet of snow and the thermometer hovering around zero. Notice the snow on the butt plate of the soldier getting his food, looks like he had it stuck in a snowbank! It makes me shiver looking at these guys.
