Original historic description: 

PNA FRA 104825
U.S. Troops Battle Snipers in Mannheim
Infantrymen of the 44th Division, Seventh U.S. Army, fire at snipers concealed in a building in Mannheim, Germany, during mopping-up operations on the day of its capture March 29, 1945. On the far side of the street, a soldier with a bazooka gun is about to fire a rocket at the position. The city was subjected to such heavy shelling and bombing that hardly a building remained intact. Mannheim is on the Rhine River 35 miles south of Mainz. OWI Staff Photo by Richard Boyer.
