RIBEAUVILLE

Crowning their Ribeauville tree, 3rd Signal Company photographers pass Christmas 1944 facing the German army still entrenched in the Colmar Pocket. The Battle of the Bulge was at a critical point to the north; to come was the German Nordwind attacks from Dec. 31 to Jan. 25 that would threaten the Seventh Army in the south.
