KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN

by Walter Bernstein ‧ RELEASE DATE: May 7, 1945

Photographic, terse accounts of various assignments that in their shorn simplicity are effective and good. Here is an induction scene, an afternoon of training at Ft. Benning, a visit to parachute training quarters, an evening at a juke joint, a Saturday night in guard house, rehearsals of This Is The Army, night alarums aboard a freighter, reconnaissance platoon outside Messina, mountain troops in Italy, a seven day march to Marshal Tito's headquarters, etc. Highlights things familiar to soldiers -- and of interest to people back home.
