        My paternal Grandfather, Lt. Col JE Moore was in charge of the motor pool in Paris when this pic was taken. I have letters he wrote home about the day & meeting Gen Charles de Gaulle. Thank you for this picture.

        Dad was in Army intelligence during WWII evaluating German launch sites. He was in both London and Paris on this day, and I proudly wear the coat he wore in both cities.
