Description
“You men and women in uniform are responsible for this little book…You said that no matter where you were – on trains, ships, planes, or subs; in camp, abroad, in outposts, on leave, or in hospitals, there were times when you and your buddy had a few minutes for fun, and what could we suggest…Time these days, passes too fast or too slowly. We hope that this booklet will slow it down for you when it needs slowing and will rush it along when it begins to drag for you.” – Foreword.
This fun-filled wartime publication undoubtedly helps many a weary American soldier pass the times. Numerous games to play alone or with friends are explained in simple terms. Necessary equipment is minimal, using coins, cards, pencils, matches, etc.
