11th Armored Division Photos
Two patrols, one from the 84th Inf. Div. U.S. First Army, and the other from the 11th Armored Division, U.S. Third Army, meet at a prearranged rendezvous on L’Ourthe River, closing the bulge in Belgium. The contact, uniting two U.S. armies, solidified the front line. Here, Pfc. Rodney Himes, Rochester, NY and Pfc. Alfred Gernhardt, New York City, both representing the 84th Division shake hands with T/5Ancol Casey, Farksville, KY of the 11th Armored Division as the patrols meet. January 16, 1945
