STRASBOURG

A reception at the 3rd Division officer's club in Strasbourg for Gen. Schwartz (left), commander of the 10th French Military District was attended by members of a 3rd Division Red Cross clubmobile (left to right: Fritzi Hoagland, Janet Potts, Elizabeth Elliott and Florence Wick). On the right is Acting Commanding General Robert Young. By mid December, American troops were realigning around Strasbourg under Eisenhower's directive to tighten the lines and turn attention to Colmar in the south. The defensive control of Strasbourg was being transferred to the 10th French Military District and the First French Army.
