Hi all, my girlfriend got me this lot from a local antique shop today for £3 if you can believe it! It all came from the same soldier who belonged to and anti- aircraft unit. There is a large photo of the unit, plus both the famous D- day letter sent by Eisenhower (this has "please keep this for me" written on the back, so presumably it was sent home as a souvenir, hence its good condition). There is also a letter comending the unit's performance in the defence of Antwerp from Monty. In addition there are about 30 wartime and prewar postcards, clearly tracing his units progress through the ETO, there are one from ouistreham, Nijmegan, Hanover etc.
Many thanks.
