FrontLine News Reaches the Front Lines

St. Dié-des-Vosges Captured

My Mother and Audie Murphy Ch. 52

The only photo on this page, of the shelled St. Die, was presumably taken by Flo. There is also a copy of the Third Division FrontLine newspaper which tells the story of a soldier from Seattle who killed several Nazis in hand-to-hand combat. Probably Oscar Amundson was someone she knew from her home state of Washington.

The FrontLine newspaper was started in World War II. Published weekly, it is still the official periodical for the Third Infantry Division.
