Anon: The U.S. Army Wants Real Men c.1919. While others drill on the parade ground two studious soldiers are engrossed in their studies.

The other soldier, who appears in the foreground, is reading what is probably a textbook. This scene is part of the “University of Khaki” which prepares soldiers for a higher rank in civilian life or an army commission.16×13 near mint, conservation backed.
