Coutances battle of Normandy

Wonder how many times they were shot at by their own side.

That is the main reason (I believe) that they got rid of the camo

Wonder what was in the box? Booby trap maybe?
Looks kind of suspicious or may be staged.
Chicken in the middle of the road way in the back of the photo.
He's probably not booby trapped!:)

"K" rations...typical detritus of an area you won't have to police up.

Interesting that they have M1905 bayonets instead of M1s this late in the war.

Yeah this would have to be June of 1944 or later. You would think they would have more updated equipment with them
