 "Medic on a roof in Germany 1944, my dad J.A. Gonzalez, back of original reads "somewhere in Germany." That is all they were allowed to share. He was "somewhere in England" prior to the troop movements into Europe. He sent mom a post card of Colchester telling her that this is the town near where they had been but he hadn't been able to tell her the location. The mansion in the background was no doubt used as American/Allied headquarters. My dad is standing, second from left. His portrait as a Private First Class  member of the Army Air Corps, HQ 368 Fighter Group. He was proud of his service and what he learned as a medical aidman. We always had first aid kits on hand...serious ones similar  to the one he used on the battle field. He also talked about how awesome it was to assist army surgeons in the triage tents. Dad truly admired them and all they did to try to save wounded soldiers."
