Thanks for the comment, Son of a Gun(ner). I really don't have any knowledge of WWII planes, and just typed in what Dad had written on the backs....
This is the last batch of pictures that I have. I think most of these are from Pompeii or other ruins Dad visited. I hope you have enjoyed these...
I think most of these were taken at the ruins at Pompeii, as this first one is identified on the back. [IMG] The rest have nothing in on them....
I would guess that some of these pictures were also taken in Rome, but not sure. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Some of these pictures have notes on the back, but most don't. Dad must have taken a trip to Rome while he was in Italy. On the back of this one...
This group of pictures are ones that Dad must have taken out and about in Bari or on excursions in Italy. [IMG] On the back of this one, it says...
The book I have says there were a couple of "rest camps" set up, one very near Bari and the other a bit farther down the Adriatic coast, where the...
The third Christmas that the 26th Gen Hosp. spent somewhere overseas was Christmas 1944, and from the descriptions in the book, it was the best...
TD-Tommy, thanks for the link to the other site. I'll check it out. By the way, noticed the names on your signature and thought I'd mention...

Bari, Italy [IMG] Not sure where this was taken, but think it might have been at the hospital in Bari, or perhaps a train station?? On the back...
Pictures from the crossing on an LCI and Bari Harbor On the back: LCI from Africa to Italy, '43 [IMG] The rest of these pics are identified on...
Thanks, Fred. And I appreciate the link. I didn't know about that forum, and it looks like there is some interesting stuff there. Bonnie

To start off this section of pics from my Dad's album, I'll quote the writer of the book my Dad had called "A History of the 26th General...
Last batch of pictures from North Africa. There is nothing on the backs of any of these except the last one, which was actually a postcard....
I'm pretty sure all of this batch of pictures were from North Africa. Nothing is written on the backs of any of these. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
Still more pictures from North Africa (I think!). I will try to put all the pictures from Italy in a separate post, but some of them may be in the...
