Caption
  • Fleming's caption typed on reverse side of image reads, in full: "Infantry and Armor move cautiously to clear road running by Lake Sösestausee in the Hartz Mts. Doughs smashing through the brush on either side flushed out several prisoners, and the captain leading the column on foot picked off a German on a motorbike with his pistol. That's about all that happened till about 4 PM they approached a town. As we left then to get our film in the heavy weapons section was setting up an MG to cover a platoon going in, tanks being in reserve. Most doughs were busy sleeping in the town next morning when we returned. Infantry were of the 18th Regt of 1st Div. Tankers were of the 745 Tank Bn. Near Osterode, Ger - - 14 April 45"
