1903003671Colombo Ceylon now Sri Lanka 1903. Half Morocco. Very Good. 8vo. 18.5 by 14.5 cm. iv 44 pp. the leaves made of heavy card stock. The author a colonial officer for the British army would later publish "The Annals of the King's Royal Rifle Corps" which contained his color illustrations of uniforms arms and equipment and other works. From this work it is clear he had artistic aptitude and as an officer in Ceylon undoubtedly a lot of free time to indulge in the creation of this work. It would seem that this work was written with an eye on possible publication but that did not come to be. Few will not be charmed by the many vignettes of badges and coats-of-arms mostly rendered in bright watercolors with some done as ink drawings. Also illustrated are flags and banners. Some of the tissue guards are heavily foxed while the cards proper sometimes have offsetting from this soiling. A large chipped loss to the leather spine with a partial loss of one letter of title. Still a very handsome album. <br /><br /> books

During the Vietnam War in the mid-1960s the Army began issuing what was known as the XM16A1 assault rifle to its infantry units. Soon severe problems began emerging mostly due to improper instructions and cleaning kits the biggest one being "failure to extract." That necessitated numerous improvements and in 1967 the rifle was standardized as M16A1. Meanwhile cartoonist and author William Eisner 1917 - 2005 worked with The Pentagon for years producing teaching tools in a cartoon format easily understandable and relevant isuch as the current booklet in which a female narrator instructed the soldiers on the proper care for their rifles. Humorous and appealing chapter titles included: "How to Strip Your Baby" "All the Way with Neglige" and "Putting Maggie Together." A copy of the book was issued to practically every GI serving in Vietnam. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback books
