June, 1945: Moving from Wiesbaden, Germany to Lyon, France

The war in Europe was finished, but the war in the Pacific was still going strong. So, Pop's unit moved from Germany towards Marseille in preparation of heading towards Japan. The first three photographs show Wiesbaden, Germany while the last two show an airfield south of Lyon where an overnight stop occurred.

I will have to post a map that shows the movement around the world. I can't really call this a progression because of the circumstances, but it is amazing to see the documentation of this movement during the war.
