They had 12 teams of photographers and it was called the Signal Service Company 3264th. And each team had two still men, two movie men, one officer and three vehicles, and that's it... We had nothing but photographers, and we could be assigned anywhere under General Bradley's command... So some of our photographers were assigned to the British and French armies, and we could move around from one to the other. If we thought the pictures were better over there, we'd just move over there; we weren't stuck in one place, like most of the photo companies were. And our photos would go to whoever was nearest to be processed.
