Description: Arlin White, machine gunner for the U.S. Army 97th Infantry Division, recalls the Allied advance into Germany, taking enemy prisoners, and what it means to lose friends in combat. Note: Due to a shortage of personal photographs, the archival depictions of Arlin White in this episode are representations only, and not actual photographs of Mr. White. As Memoirs of WWII, we always do our utmost to accurately depict the veterans and their stories, both out of respect towards the veterans and our desire to preserve the truth. Some veterans have a large collection of personal photographs, while others have very few. In this case, Arlin’s personal World War II photographs were misplaced over time and were unable to be located for use in this documentary.
