45th Division News Vol. IV No. 30 "To kill time in their spare months, members of a Thunderbird artillery outfit make rings, bracelets, and other costume jewelry from metal salvaged from destroyed enemy aircraft. Here Kenneth H. Garrey (Manchester, Iowa) shows a partly completed ring and the finished product. Beside him is all that's left of an ME 109 prop that's being converted into souvenirs for the folks at home."Made/Created
