I've perused about three-quarters of it so far. Really interesting. A real peak into a 40's combat manual. The intent was to help the soldier and give him good advice, but is filled with a touch of humor too.
I didn't realize there were other things including news items of the day and a book excerpt, Victory, from the journalist, James B Reston.
It's definitely worth a few minutes of your time. The first page's words are a bit blurry, but the rest is great shape and easy to read.
