Army Country Guides: These small pocket-sized pamphlets were given to soldiers before they were posted overseas. They include cultural, political, geographic, and climatological information plus useful phrases in the country's language. The guides reflected official American views about the country and its society as well as the writers' occasional touch of humor. Our collection includes volumes from Iraq, Iran, Syria, the USSR, North and West Africa, Morocco, Australia, India, and a lively volume entitled 112 Gripes about the French!

What the Soldier Thinks: This collection consists of sixteen issues of a monthly confidential report conducted by professional opinion researchers at General Marshall's behest. Marshall commissioned this work over the objections of numerous high-ranking officers. Marshall sought to prevent morale and social problems from being ignored until they became significant political issues damaging to the army and the war effort.
