New England's Welcome to Her Sons in 26th Division
A Boston parade in front of Keith's Theatre marks New England's welcome to the 26th Division. Civilians showered the ranks with cigarette packages from Jewish Welfare Board volunteers as crowds cheered Colonel Edward L. Logan of the 101st Infantry. An elderly woman in the subway declined help with a large box, joking she would rely on helpers after the parade.
