here's a little more info for those whose dads went down to Istress France airfield at wars end with the 384th....this is a picture postcard my dad Tony was going to send to his mom, my grandma back home in Trenton New Jersy usa while he was in Istres... a note on the back says he was in palavas france aug 8-9-10-11 of 1945....the translation of the last 3 words in the lower right corner is "right bank villas" .....this town is located to the east of Istres on the beach...I'm assuming this is one place some of the guys went to on leave days.
