Snowy Card from Belgium

Well, my mailbox is toast.  The snow plow came through on our road and demolished it with the blade.  I found this poor card in the snow!  Seems fairly intact though.  Can't say the same for the mailbox, which is now currently leaning on the paper box for support.  :(

This is card showing the Mardasson Memorial (building behind the statue) which is a tribute to American soldiers who died during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 in the south of Belgium.
