I assume this is Army. My great-uncle served in Europe in WWII and when he passed away about 30 years ago the family came across stuff he had saved from the War, and nobody wanted it. Mom asked me if I wanted it and I've always been fascinated about everything to do with WWII and said "of course".
Included were several Yank Magazines, I assume distributed to all the soldiers. I have this one, and the cover just made me feel something.
Berchtesgaden was Hitler's fancy mountain retreat where he hosted parties and such. In this pic, the US soldiers that overtook it took several trophies. In this cover pic they're swilling Hitler's fancy booze and even took his skis lol.
