A young French alter server named Louis, still wearing his vestment gown and an American GI’s cap, is served by U.S. soldiers in a chow line. During the war, many young children would be informally “adopted” by military regiments and serve roles to boost morale as a distraction for servicemen with younger siblings or children at home, act as gofers, or become unit mascots. Vierville-sur-Mer, Calvados, Lower Normandy, France. 7 July 1944.
