An American servicewoman and serviceman pose together in the Place de la Concorde, Paris, one of the city's most iconic public squares, recognizable by its fountains and the ancient Luxor Obelisk in the background. Photographs like this, taken during World War II or the immediate post-liberation period, capture the personal side of the American military presence in Europe, as service members took the opportunity to see historic landmarks amid their wartime duties.
