Clay arrives at the headquarters of the military government

A large dark car has drawn up at the kerb, a plate with four stars mounted below its grille; its driver in uniform and cap stands at the open rear door while an officer in a peaked cap and service coat climbs the steps toward a stone building with barred windows. The source describes Clay's car arriving at the headquarters of the Office of Military Government for Germany, Clay getting out and going in, and the sign at the entrance. Clay held four-star rank from 1947 as military governor of the American zone.
