This Polyfoto was most likely taken in Romsey, England shortly after receiving his promotion to Captain on June 1, 1944; he soon left England with the 820th Base Ordnance Depot Co. and arrived in Cherbourg a week later once the Allies had captured the port. He served as the commanding officer of the 820th for over a year before arriving back in the States on September 11, 1945.
