"Baby Patrol" by Roberta Russo

An article about the "Baby Patrol", the rescue of 81 children at Han, France, by soldiers of the 134th Infantry Regiment on September 29 - 30, 1944, has been posted on the 134th Infantry Regiment website. Here is a link to that story:

Time Magazine wrote about the rescue in their October 30, 1944 issue.

Paula Evans Baker represented the regiment and the 35th Division at a commemoration ceremony in Han, France on June 16, 2006. She wrote the posted article about the rescue and the commemoration ceremony, which originally appeared in the Santa Fe Express.

Thanks to Paula Evans Baker, Marilyn Jensen, and Jerome Leclerc of the association of L'Espace de Memoire Lorraine 1939-1945, for providing this information and pictures to post on the 134th website.
