194512886Various locations mainly Texas Oklahoma and Arkansas 1945. Two albums. Album I: 24 leaves illustrated with twenty-four original photographs over two dozen postcards mostly photographic original letters and military documents and a large quantity of ephemeral items. Folio. Contemporary cream cloth decoratively stamped on front board in gilt and silver string tied. Album II: 11 leaves illustrated with ninety-eight photographs in mounting corners six loose photos and a couple of ephemeral items. Oblong folio. Contemporary brown cloth decoratively stamped on front board in gilt yellow and red string tied. Overall minor wear. Very good condition. A pair of annotated vernacular photograph album / scrapbooks compiled by Lt. Erma J. Frazier and her mother during her wartime service in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps. Frazier served in the Nurse Corps at various hospitals in the Trans-Mississippi West at Camp Swift in Bastrop Texas; Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio Texas; Okmulgee Oklahoma; and Camp Robinson Arkansas. Frazier hailed from East Brady Pennsylvania and worked as a Registered Nurse at the nearby Kittanning Hospital before she entered military service. She enlisted in early 1945 and served throughout the conclusion of the Second World War. The present albums record her service time in unusual detail with a mixture of original photographs picture postcards original military documents a few manuscript letters and various ephemeral items.<br /> <br /> The first album was compiled by Frazier's mother who inscribes the first page: "I dedicate this book to my daughter Erma Jean Eberhart Frazier who entered the Armed Services on March 17 1945 as a 2nd Lt. in the Nurse Army Corps a Camp Swift Texas." This album focuses mainly on Frazier's time at Camp Swift and Okmulgee Oklahoma. This album contains the lion's share of the ephemera including a patch the floral corsage she wore on the day she left for service military paperwork and forms and various newspaper clippings. The military paperwork includes enlistment documents including her "Application for Appointment" a manuscript postcard from the director of the Red Cross describing Frazier as a "professional qualified for military service" Army documents on qualifications for nurses and more. Other ephemera includes letters and cards received by her at Camp Swift a page of five pressed "Flowers from Texas" each preserved in a small plastic bag shipping tags from packages of clothing sent home by Frazier a couple of church programs a page of ten small postcards from her visit to Austin a menu from Brooke General & Convalescent Hospital at Fort Sam Houston some greeting cards and so forth. The photographs include portraits of Frazier from 1943 and 1944 while a nursing student; eight pictures of Frazier and other soldiers at Camp Swift; and eight shots of Frazier fellow soldiers and their barracks and administration buildings at Okmulgee Oklahoma.<br /> <br /> The second album was compiled by Frazier herself who provides a manuscript title on the inside front cover: "Memories of the Army Nurse Corps." There are also two photographs inscribed in the first person "Me on arrival at G.G.H." and "side entrance to my barracks G.G.H.". This album is almost entirely comprised of captioned photographs particularly valuable for identifying numerous fellow soldiers serving with Frazier. The images emanate from the last three locations at which Frazier served which she lists on the inside front cover: Brooke General Hospital at Fort Sam Houston Glennon General Hospital in Okmulgee and Regional Hospital at Camp Robinson Arkansas. Perhaps Frazier felt her mother's album largely focused on Camp Swift sufficiently memorialized here time there. The photographs are presented in chronological order and include portraits of dozens of men and women with whom Frazier served or patients served by Frazier often accompanied by informative and sometimes humorous manuscript captions on the album leaves or directly on the images. The photos also picture the hospitals themselves and include a handful of images taken during leisure time on base.<br /> <br /> A unusually informative pair of World War II-era albums and scrapbooks preserving the service of a highly-qualified Army nurse from Pennsylvania serving in the American West during the last year of the war. unknown

AQ22662London: Sold by J. Oliver.and J. Sellar junior s.d. c.1686 Single engraved sheet folded vertically and housed in modern blue paper wrappers. Some old folds with occasional minor tearing offsetting and browning - especially to gutter. Short tear to the head of spine of the enclosing wrappers. A rare survival of a choice engraved plan of the annual military review of King James II's troops at Hounslow Heath in July 1686. The Restoration settlement of Charles II provided the King with just a small defensive military; a standing army in name only. This was expanded greatly during the 1660s and 1670s largely as a result of the Anglo-Dutch - and Franco-Dutch - wars. But the accession of his brother James II himself intent on expanding his armed presence in part out of necessity given the threat of rebellion as demonstrated by the efforts of the Duke of Monmouth in 1685 led to significant expansion of the English armed forces. Annual military manoeuvres and reviews were hosted at Hounslow Heath each summer between 1685 and 1688 in order to train this enlarged and increasingly professional force and in no small part to demonstrate the substantial military support that the King - always in a politically precarious position in relation to the Church Parliament and landed gentry despite apparent popularity amongst his subjects - could muster. The English puritan minister and journalist Roger Morrice noted in his diaries that several thousand visited the camp - the early-modern equivalent of the earlier chivalric tournament - represented by this engraving. It is perhaps therefore unsurprising that a number of commercial opportunities from prostitution to printing arose from the impressive and novel gathering. Whilst ESTC locates a single copy Oxford of this plan finely engraved for English print and map-seller's John Seller 1668–1698 and John Oliver OCLC adds a further example at Cambridge and reproductions have supposedly been made from an 'original in the Huntington Library' which we have been unable to locate other editions of the same view are also known. A broadside version of this prospect 'printed for and sold by Richard Palmer' - with letterpress titling and woodcut illustration - was also issued. Another also in broadside format and with a variant title with an exact date specified An exact prospect of his Majesty's forces as they are encamped on Hounslow Heath 19 July 1686 London 1686 bears the imprint of 'Walter Davis in Amen-Corner' is recorded by ESTC at three location Ashmolean BL and Oxford. ESTC R25579. Wing R25579. Dimensions: Sheet - 490 x 310 mm; Engraved area - 462 x 230 mm. Sold by J. Oliver...and J. Sellar junior, [s.d., c.1686?] unknown

140779Very Good. A commercial photograph album 225 × 320 mm containing 163 snapshot photographs mainly 57 × 70 mm or 64 × 90 mm loosely mounted behind photo-corners on 24 leaves mainly on the rectos with captions regularly throughout the album. A postcard-format studio portrait of the compiler is attached to the front pastedown and he has identified himself in a number of photographs. In one snapshot he is standing with former German Olympic boxer Hans Schönrath 1902-1945 who has signed the photograph in ink. Cord-bound boards covered with coarsely-woven multi-coloured fabric; extremities a little rubbed and bumped with minor wear to some corners; patterned tissue-guards occasionally chipped and torn; minimal signs of age and use including a few loose snapshots - and only a handful appear to be no longer present; overall in excellent condition. The portrait has a personal inscription on the verso unfortunately not fully identifying the subject. The snapshots are basically in chronological order with the first group captioned 'R.A.D. 1937'. 'The Reichsarbeitsdienst RAD or National Empire Labour Service had its origins with the formation of a volunteer labour force that was created to off-set the high unemployment before the Nazis came to power.

Under Hitler's leadership service in the RAD was obligatory for all males of 17-25 years of age for a period of six months from 26 June 1935' Imperial War Museum.

232441972. US Army manuals on counterintelligence interrogation and combat. FM 30-17 Counterintelligence Operations FM 30-15 Intelligence Interrogation FM 30-5 Combat Intelligence and the Fort Huachuca subcourse Counterintelligence Investigations trace the Army's printed intelligence doctrine from January 1972 to June 1989. The sequence begins after the Army established Military Intelligence as a distinct professional branch in 1962 and after the Military Intelligence Corps relocated its school to Fort Huachuca in 1971. By 1989 the printed curriculum had shifted from broad field doctrine toward formal professional instruction for Counterintelligence Special Agents at the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and School. FM 30-17 indexes topics including "Rights" "Witness" "Wiretapping" and the "U.S. Army Security Agency"; FM 30-15 appends the 1949 Geneva Conventions and states that coercion is neither acceptable nor effective.<br /> <br /> 1972-1989 Washington D.C. and Fort Huachuca Arizona. Archive of 4 military intelligence training publications: three Headquarters Department of the Army field manuals and one Army Intelligence Center and School correspondence-course subcourse all in original printed wrappers and stapled or punched for binder storage.<br /> 1 United States Department of the Army. FM 30-17 Counterintelligence Operations. Washington D.C.: Headquarters Department of the Army January 1972. Issued under the printed authority of General W. C.

FM 30-15 Intelligence Interrogation. Washington D.C.: Headquarters Department of the Army June 1973.

FM 30-5 Combat Intelligence. Washington D.C.: Headquarters Department of the Army October 1973. Issued the year of final U.S. combat withdrawal from Vietnam the manual expands combat intelligence into "cold war" "limited war" "general war" and "stability operations" with sections on civilian sources insurgent intelligence collection rear-area sabotage and terrorist threats and counterintelligence planning.<br /> 4 United States Army Intelligence Center and School. Counterintelligence Investigations. Subcourse IT 0735 Edition 9. Fort Huachuca Arizona: Army Institute for Professional Development Army Correspondence Course Program June 1989. A six-credit-hour professional course for the Counterintelligence Special Agent covering doctrine for initiating CI cases procedures for selected CI investigations and techniques for handling physical evidence.<br /> The group follows the Army's post-1962 effort to professionalize intelligence as a branch and concentrate its training system at Fort Huachuca after the 1971 move from Fort Holabird. FM 30-15 1973 is the Army's printed official position that torture and coercion are prohibited with the Geneva Conventions reproduced in full. That manual was the governing interrogation doctrine on paper through the early 2000s. It's the document that the post-9/11 interrogation debates the 2002 OLC memos and Abu Ghraib were measured against. Owning the actual printed doctrinal manual that says "coercion is neither acceptable nor effective" is the headline. One booklet is missing its rear cover and one volume contains annotations throughout. Overall good condition. The 1972 and 1973 manuals set out combat collection interrogation surveillance evidence and counterintelligence support in cold war and stability operations; the 1989 Huachuca subcourse narrows that material into school-based instruction for case initiation and judicial-type investigations. unknown

1923215951923. African American MilitaryWWI Muller William G. The Twenty-Fourth Infantry 1923 documents the service of a Black regiment in the United States Army tracing its development from Reconstruction through the Mexican Border War. Written by Captain William G. Muller the volume situates the regiment's origins in the 1869 consolidation of the 38th and 41st Infantry regiments among the first post-Civil War units composed of Black enlisted men and follows its campaigns across the Western frontier Cuba during the Spanish American War and Mexico during the 1916 to 1917 Punitive Expedition. Produced at a time when Black military service was constrained by segregation the work offers insight into the service of Buffalo Soldiers in the decades preceding formal desegregation.<br /> <br /> Muller William G. The Twenty-Fourth Infantry. 1923. The text opens with a dedication "To those colored non-commissioned officers and soldiers whose unswerving loyalty and devotion of the regiment made possible these brilliant pages of history." Extensively illustrated with photographic portraits of senior Black noncommissioned officers among them Regimental Sergeant Major Walter B. Williams Color Sergeant Wm. G. Wilcox and Regimental Color Sergeant Abraham Hill identified as "one of the Army's great rifle shots." Additional images document encampments in New Mexico and Texas scenes from Mexico during the Punitive Expedition and regimental athletics including a football team that competed against historically Black colleges such as Tuskegee and Talladega. The narrative emphasizes the regiment's record of discipline and cohesion asserting that its "high character.unsullied for 54 years" reflected institutional stability amid shifting national racial politics.<br /> <br /> The history reflects an effort to commemorate the service record of Black soldiers at a moment when their contributions to westward expansion the Spanish American War and border conflicts were indispensable. The sustained attention to leadership merit marksmanship and athletic competition underscores the high professional standards Black soldiers were held to in the face of systemic discrimination. Minor edge wear and light rubbing to the binding; interior generally clean with occasional light toning; illustrations clear and complete. Overall very good. unknown
