Colonel Joseph Laughlin Meets with General Dwight D. Eisenhower

Colonel Laughlin speaks with General Eisenhower during an informal meeting in an aircraft hangar

Colonel Laughlin was able to meet with the Supreme Allied Commander of the Allied Forces, General Eisenhower, it seems by chance. There is no indication that this was planned, and it has not been discussed in any sort of detail that has been seen. However, with Eisenhower having been raised in Kansas, it seems that these two men from the Midwest could have had more than war to talk about.
