Description
The AMERICAN SOLDIER, like the British, is a civilian in uniform, not a professional fighting man. The presence of large numbers troops in this country therefore presents an opportunity for the ordinary people of the two great English speaking nations to get to know each other in the mass, an opportunity never presented by the tourist traffic of peace-time.
This pamphlet, which has been prepared especially for teachers to use as a basis for lessons in school, sets out to give the minimum background information on which such understanding needs to be based. The text is accompanied by eight pages of photographs illustrating various activities of the U.S. Army as well as some of the aircraft and other equipment which it has introduced to this country. There is also a simple line map showing the six great regions of the U.S.A.
