Sorting Mail

French civilians and soldiers from the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion sort mail in France during the spring of 1945. Viewing their jobs as crucial to morale at the front, they processed some 65,000 pieces of mail a shift and worked three shifts a day. At the same time, the soldiers faced constant prejudice and broke gender and racial barriers. Army photo
