10th Tank Battalion

Welcome to Pictures of the 10th Tank Battalion

I have very little information on the 10th Tank Battalion. Only a few pictures of its members. Monique McCullough was kind enough to forward some pictures of her uncle, Sgt. Joe Appelhans. He is pictured here as a corporal. Sgt. Appelhans was killed in action 9/20/44 and rests in Luxembourg.
