Unbound. Condition: Fine. Vol. I, No. 30. One folio sheet folded twice, measuring 10" x 7" closed. Illustrated, mostly from half-tone photographs. Old horizontal fold, light wear and paper evenly toned, just about near fine. A New Jersey Signal Corps newspaper most notable for being issued on August 9, 1945, the day that the U.S…. dropped the second atomic bomb on Japan. The headlining article, "7 Million Yanks Will Strike Huge 'Single Blow' at Japan," is about a troop surge (the U.S. had about 12 million troops at the time), and on p.[2] Bill Triano's "The Inquiring Fotogapher" features portraits and answers for three people who were asked "Do you think that the Japs will surrender unconditionally?" (Again, with no mention of the atomic bomb.) Includes information about soldiers, comics and a trivia game, and "The Letter," a poem by Rita Jones, Medical Section, SSL. *OCLC* seems to locate two serial entries (Princeton, New Jersey Newspaper Project).
