878th Airborne Engineer Aviation Battalion Clarks

Post by Jonesy »

I bought a large photographic grouping taken by an engineer from the 878th Airborne Engineer Aviation Battalion. One batch of photos was taken during training at Westover and these gems were amongst them.

Hi Ken,

I believe it Westover airfield but the backs of the photos only has Westover written on them.
