Verenigde Staten. Alsatian refugees evacuated from danger zones. Surrounded by her grandchildren, an elderly Alsatian woman cradles the youngest in her arms as the family waits quietly in a truck which will carry them out of shell-scared Ritterhoffen, France, to a place of safety. As the enemy stabs out in this sector of the Western Front, Civil Affairs units of the U.S. Army aid in the evacuation of large groups of civilians out of the danger zones.
