MAINE SOLDIER MARRIES IN GERMAN CITY

Mrs. Homer Johnson has received word that her brother, SP-3 Paul A. Harrison, and Adi Irma Yibbersen of Huseen, Germany, were united in marriage Oct. 13, 1955, at 11:00 o'clock in the Standesbeamte's office in Landstuhl, Germany. They were also married at 2:00 the same day in the chapel at the Landstuhl Army Medical Center by the Protestant Chaplain, John E. Gannon.

The bride wore a full length dress with a white velvet jacket. Her finger tip veil fell from a crown of flowers. Her bouquet was white carnations with a red sweetheart rose in the center.

The matron of honor, Mrs. Gabby Matterzly, of Salzburg, Austria, wore a black gown trimmed with pink and carried pink carnations. The best man was Raymond B. Burton of Glenmory, Tenn.

The bride is a graduate of Volksscherb School in Huseen, Germany and has been employed by the Army in Landstuhl.

The groom attended schools in Washburn. He reenlisted last December for another three years in the service and is now Message Center Chief in the second General Hospital in Landstuhl. They plan to return to the United States in August when he will have completed three years in Germany.
