DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE 101st Airborne SOLDIERS IN THIS PHOTO?

A 101st Airborne, Five-O-Deuce Paratrooper’s WWII photo album surfaced in France & was purchased as memorabilia. Russell Miller appears to have been the owner of the album with photos of himself, family and fellow soldiers from his 502nd unit between 1943-1945. They were in Regimental Headquarters. In this photo, Russell appears on the far right but no names are attached to the other 4 soldiers.

Most photos are not named making it difficult to contact them. Three photos of my father, David Tharp appeared in the album, photos that our family never saw until recently and have been added to his collection of wartime letters in COMES A SOLDIER’S WHISPER. Their regimental Batwings, Skull and Parachute patch was one that my father was very proud of. He wrote back home in one of his letters, “It may not be pretty, but we are damn proud of it.”

If you recognize any of these soldiers, make the connection, so the photograph can find its’ way back to family or friends.

Comes A Soldier’s Whisper, making a history connection one day at a time…
