45th Division News Vol. V No. 17 "In a little Alsace town liberated by the 45th, Thunderbirds looked upon an example of Nazi work- a destroyed and defiled synagogue. Louis Chloopak (New York City, New York) examines the damage- uprooted stones, broken windows, smashed walls. On the wall to his left is a slogan chalked there by one of the Jews in town: "The miserable have passed here. God is with us.""Made/Created
