Frankfurt, Germany, September 1947: Gen. Omar N. Bradley, left, head of the Veterans Administration, and Lt. Gen. Clarence Huebner, deputy EUCOM commander, salute during a ceremony marking Bradley’s arrival at Rhein-Main Air Base. Bradley’s whirlwind tour of the country whose liberation he helped ensure (through his leadership of the Normandy invasion three years earlier) took him from the Frankfurt area to southern Bavaria.
