Military keyword > wells > Great American Race car #18, "Miss Emma," a 1939 Cadillac Convertible Coupe, crosses the half-way point finish line in Lewisville, TX. Driver Thom Wells, and navigator Ouarda Wells, of Hendersonville, NC.
Military keyword > wells > Eddie Pozelnik (left, from Utah), Ned Wells (center - my dad - from NC), and Glenn Hensley (right, also from NC) on captured German horses in Kirchdorf, Austria, Sep 8th, 1945. Ned is on a gray gelding they named "Mustang." After the 11th Armored Division pulled out of Kirchdorf in August, 1945, the 26th Infantry Division inherited these and other horses that were left in the local stables. Dad and his buddies got permission from their commanders to run the stables, charging a minimal fee to the locals and occupation GI's for horse rides (for the horses' upkeep). Once the war was over, Dad's three months in Kirchdorf were some of his most enjoyable during his entire time in the ETO.

Clockwise, starting after Ned: Swanson - Eddie "Luke" Lukowski - "Swede" Carlson - Sgt Wayne "Sam" Kiser (squad leader, in front right seat) - Dan Finney - Jim "Eddie" Canter. Not shown and probably taking the photo was the squad's jeep driver, Tom Wolf. Note 26th Inf Div bumper stenciling - "26 ID" on the right side, "H-7" (H for "Howe," a heavy weapons company) on the left. If that's an H after ID, it could stand for "Heavy."
