World War I Soldier’s Manual
Manual for Soldiers in France in Town and Field Service, by G. Ruffier. L’Edition Francaise Illustree, Paris. 1917 or so, owned by Earl Lessue in Comapny A, 338th machine gun battalion, AEF(?) from World War I. I probably should have tried to find a descendant. By the same author, Manual for ‘War-Women’ in France. That sounds interesting. I sold it on eBay for about $10 awhile back.

That looks fantastic. I’ve always looked those old soldier’s manuals from various wars.
Fascinating! Looks like the sorts of things we found in my great-grandfather’s collection of stuff (he fought in WWI).

All you soldiers will definitely be remembered. All your hard work will not go to waste. Thanks for bringing us peace.
