The following pictures were contributed by Susan Panioli and her sister Lorraine O’Dell, the daughters of Veteran Leroy F. O’Dell, who served with the 313th Infantry and the 79th Division during WWII in France, Germany, Belgium, and Czechoslovakia.
The river you see on the left to the church tower is the Main River.
This is one of Leroy F. O’Dell’s friends (name unknown). It seems they were having some fun by putting a helmet on the statue’s head.
I’m glad Susan P. decided to share her father’s photos with my readers, and the Historical Society of Mainberg Castle.
