Huge 7th Armored Division Group

[USMilitaria]

Hello everyone!

 

Heres a very nice group that I purchased directly from the family! Included are his HBTs, bring backs, and many more cool items. His name was Clarence E. Connor and his family told me that he became an alcoholic after the war and was discharged in 1967.

Nice looking group photo album looks interesting

[pelseth]

Very nice. Can you post pictures from the album, and of “The Box Score”? Sad story, though, which I’ve seen before.

[USMilitaria]

Thanks for the interest guys!

 

Ive always liked this grouping. Heres photos of The Box Score made in Germany in 1945 specifically for the 7th armored division and photos from his photo album.

The second photo is of him posing with a Korean. My father did the same thing when he was in Korea in the 1980s!

Looks like most pictures are from the 1950s? Still interesting Group. Think I see a m47 Patton tank in the pictures ?

[USMilitaria]

Yeah! Those photos are from his Korean War service. I still like them nevertheless. That also is a Patton tank!

Great grouping, a nice combination of pieces in there.

[USMilitaria]

Thanks man! I personally like these items myself

[Red Devil]

Outstanding group. I particularly like the poster. What sort of notes were made on the margin?

[USMilitaria]

I thought it was very interesting! That’s the names and addresses of his buddies that he fought with.

Interesting group.

In my opinion the photos make the grouping. It brings to life what the serviceman experience during the war.

Very nice to see big groupings like this. I have also some 7th Armored in my collection, a original book from '45 when they fought in the Ardennes to assist the 106th in the St.Vith Area.
