Military Courtesy #nn (U. S. Army, 1950s)

 

File copy.

 

Very cool book, especially if you are in the military or simply appreciate the military. I saw this book for the first time in Geppi's Entertainment Museum and had to have one!

 

16 pages and contains regulations and saluting instructions.

 

Given that I represent members of our military all the time this book is helpful in reminding me of uniform insignia ranks!

 

9.4, maybe better (some mfg creases along top), ow pgs (though towards cream on the edges)

 

$40.00
