[Company] A - 86th [Regiment]. Top of Riva Ridge (Moncenello [?]) Italy. Right after I took this picture, I said to Guimond the Germans must have run out of shells, we haven't had any shelling of the last several hours. I had no sooner said this when a shell came in and landed close to the tree one can see in background. Thank goodness one can hear them coming in."DonorMjaatvedt, Franklin O. (1916-2008)
