Street scene in Saarbrucken. German refugees and a U.S. jeep move slowly down a street in Saarbrucken flanked by piles of rubble and bombed-out buildings. Driving up from the South, Seventh U.S. Army troops took the important Saar town, one of the last strongpoints in the Siegfried Line, March 20, 1945. To the northeast on the same day, armor of the Seventh linked up with infantry of the Third U.S. Army 12 miles west of Kaiserslautern.
