In this image found on a a latter-day postcard, a GI takes a rip in the shadow of what appears to be a 90mm anti-aircraft gun at Netunno/Anzio in 1944. Please remember that Memorial Day is more than an excuse for a three-day weekend.

The image has been modified for posting here. The back of the postcard reads:

”NETTUNO/ANZIO 1944

1ST WORLD BASEBALL FREEDOM TOUR ‘90

George Mauer, Bronx, N.Y.C., of an antiaircraft battalion plays ball in between alerts. (National Archives)”
