M578 Memories?
Did you crew one or have one in your unit? What's your favorite memory about these light recovery vehicles?

A few months ago we were given a negative that featured the Duchess of Dakota during the war. We took the negative to Rainbow Photo Lab here in Minot with the desire to have prints made and some minor restorative work be done if necessary since we were looking at an 80+ year old negative. This is the result….an incredibly clear historical photo that shows us more detail than ever before!
Thank you to Chris B. at Rainbow Photo Lab for your painstaking work to bring this negative to life.
Thank you to Moose P. for donating the negative to the museum!
