Description

Our Army          February 1943          Vol. XV No. 2          68 Pages

Cover: Disguised as a tropical grasshopper or whatever you may call it, Private First Class John Lombardi adds a bit of finishing makeup to his physiognomy so that he will blend perfectly into the green vegetation of the tropical terrain. He wears a sniper’s suit which is super duper au fait when it comes to operating in the jungles. Our troops in the Solomons, New Guinea, and other tropical spots use this type of camouflage to very good advantage. This picture is used by Our Army courtesy Public Relations Office, Camp Blanding, Florida.
