The Snapshots in Time Collection
American Serviceman Beside Barracks Building, European Theater, WWII
An American serviceman stands beside a wooden barracks building at a U.S. military installation in the European Theater of Operations, part of a photographic collection documenting scenes from Paris and the vicinity of Buchenwald during the final year of World War II. Everyday images like this one, showing the routine maintenance of camp facilities, help illustrate the broader logistical and occupational presence of American forces in Europe following the campaigns of 1944-1945.
