(associated with DS53) Some downtime - including reading letters from home - with M1 Garand rifles at the ready, for some soldiers of Battery A of the 119th AAA Gun Battalion during the advance through France, August-September 1944. My uncle William A. Ward of Ballston Lake (later Argyle), New York is the soldier on the right with the glasses. The other three have been (but not specifically) as Ralph "Smoky" Perillo of Terryville, CT, Joseph Bailey of Monitor, Washington, and Phillip Weil of Stockton, California (helmet?)
