Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

[WWI][National Guard][WWII] Primary-source archive documenting U.S. Army transportation command operations supporting Allied logistics following the Normandy landings, centered on the development of Cherbourg as a critical supply hub. Assembled from the career of Lieutenant Colonel George C. Sullivan, the collection spans World War I mobilization through World War II and into postwar reserve service, with particular emphasis on mid-twentieth-century military infrastructure and coordination. The archive comprises hundreds of pages of official documents, correspondence, and service records alongside a substantial photographic component, including large-format panoramic rolls depicting assembled training formations and unit organization at scale. Together, the materials provide detailed evidence of the administrative and logistical systems that sustained Allied operations in Europe, situating individual service within broader frameworks of wartime transportation, supply distribution, and postwar military restructuring. Archive comprises hundreds of pages of military documents dated primarily from the 1940s through the 1950s; three panoramic photographic rolls from World War I service; one photograph album containing 83 photographs from 1917-1918; four loose photographs; and three letters dated 1945-1948. The World War I album depicts training at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, mounted artillery drills including a three-inch field gun, mounted cavalry movement across desert terrain, doughboy uniformed infantry, and a Peace Parade in Lawton, Oklahoma in November 1918. Sullivan's own written service summary records his federal call-up, transfers, promotion to corporal, commissioning, and discharge in December 1918. The panoramic rolls, measuring approximately 44 to 56 inches in length, show large assembled formations at Camp Cody, New Mexico, and officer training at Camp Taylor, Kentucky, including the 25th Battery Central Officers Training School. World War II and postwar materials include commendations, transfer requests, rosters, promotion records, certificates, and administrative correspondence. A 1949 silver gelatin photograph of Headquarters Company, 371st Support Group summer training personnel includes a roster naming forty-eight officers, among them First Lieutenant Catherine M. Henry, documenting the integration of women officers in postwar reserve structures. Sullivan's World War II documentation centers on transportation command responsibilities essential to sustaining Allied operations in Normandy and the rapid development of Cherbourg as a logistical hub following D-Day. The archive traces the evolution of the United States Army from early twentieth-century National Guard mobilization to logistics work in World War II. Postwar papers reflect Sullivan's continued reserve duty into the mid-1950s and his civilian engagement in the sale of military surplus goods in Seattle, Washington, illustrating the reintegration of career officers into postwar commercial life. Documents generally clean and legible with occasional edge wear; panoramic photographs show some cracking but remain intact; photograph album well preserved; loose photographs with light handling wear. Overall very good condition. Extensive archive chronicling four decades of a United States Army officer's career.
