Booklet from the War Years called - Give 3... Get 4!
This was in reference to the Pay Roll Savings Plan.
It's just a short booklet, so I plan on scanning all the pages some time later and placing it in a PDF file.

Cool. The SP armband is a Navy Shore Patrol or the equivalent of an Army MP. See: http://www.ussyorktown.com/yorktown/shore_patrol.htm ebay armband: Yellow on Black http://cgi.ebay.com/WW2-US-Navy-Shore-Patr...9QQcmdZViewItem
Wonder why the colors are reversed on yours? (Remember-- I know nuddin about navel militaria---nor naval, either.)
What is the last image you posted? Is that a patch or sign or just a photo of an Engineer castle??
