The longstanding tradition to gather every other year for Christmas brought over 60 family members from across Montana and the Pacific Northwest to Malta this past Christmas. Children of Jack E (Jr.) & Rita Lang held a special gathering throughout the holiday and a treasure trove of memorabilia including uniforms from World War I and II, Eagle Scout badges and souvenir photos and military treasures were explored and modeled by grandchildren of all ages.
Jack E Lang served in WWII and as a paratrooper in the 507th PIR, dropped into Normandy on D-Day, and fought in the Battle of the Bulge. The senior JJ Lang was a medic in WWI. The following photos show a variety of historic items held as treasure by the extended Lang family.
