Group Photo
This picture comes from my grandfather's (William Clement Zinck) collection, and was scanned by my sister, Sarah Himmelhoch. My grandfather labeled the photo "B-8"; “Carte Postale” is stamped on the back. In my grandfather's Autobiography (1929), he wrote: “B-8 Russ [Russell Zinck], and Clyde “Bumble” Nauss another [illegible] buddy. Clyde was in the R.C.R.s and was killed in action at Pachendaele on November 30, 1917 — and a “man” was lost for “Bumble” was true gold. He taught me how to make kites and model yachts in the good old days days of real sport. France 1917.”
