Originally published by the U. S. Army in 1945,
"This book is not intended as a definitive history of this phase of the American effort in Europe, but simply as a souvenir to recall for the soldier the highlights of the great project in which he had a part. One million copies were distributed by the U. S. armed forces in France. Obviously one person could not gather and evaluate all the material for a book on the Services of Supply of the U. S. Army in the ETO. Actually more than 100 persons, ranging from a Pfc to the Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Forces, contributed variously. Ten generals, for instance, read proof and criticized chapters dealing with their particular branches."
This is the hardcover book version of the souvenir book originally printed in Europe.Cataloged By
