2-40th Artillery, 1968




The images below were graciously donated by Bastien Mouray of France.  Mouray, a dedicated enthusiast on the 199th LIB, purchased the images several months ago (in slide form) from and individual living in Oklahoma who did not served with the Brigade but somehow came into possession of the negatives. 

As is shown, the images are of the 2-40th Artillery, along with General Forbes, sometime in mid-1967 when the unit was celebrating its 100,000 round fired in support of combat operations.
