Korean War, Army Basic Training, Ft. Eustis, 1951-1952

German Class 42 engine 42 159. I took this photo in the Ft. Eustis, Virginia, rail yards sometime during basic training in late 1951 and early 1952. This engine was brought to the United States after World War II, and was salvaged for scrap in 1952. My old friend, Bob Williams, is in the photo. Bob survives to this day and is in good health.
