Grandpa's WWII pictures

With the anniversary of D-Day coming this weekend, I dug up some pictures my grandpa took while he was overseas. His tour of duty started out in Iceland, then to England, crossed the English Channel on D-Day, and marched into Germany, fighting the whole way.

I think I am going to go down to White Stone and assemble my Granddad's pictures this weekend. My Great Uncle was in the South Pacific and has a lot of pictures of women down there with baskets on their heads and no tops on. My Grandad had a badass German motorcycle he "took possession of" somewhere around Anzio. We have a picture of him on it drinking a beer.
