12642'GIPD - M 2079 Army - 12-12-44 - 5000.' 12 December 1944. 6 28pp. 12mo. In coloured illustrative wraps. Morris's illustrations are light and fresh the first being a caricature of 'the enemy': a sour-looking bespectacled Japanese army officer. The first section which it illustrates is on 'Security' and concludes: 'Remember that in disposing of household effects releasing servants from employment etc. you may easily give away too much information. Be guarded; it is YOUR life too that is in danger this time.' The volume is entertainingly-written and paints a vivid picture of the logistical niceties facing the British armed forces at the end of the war. One piece of advice illustrated with another Morris cartoon is: 'If you have a "double-barrelled" name sink your pride and use one name only. You will not enjoy searching amongst piles of Baggage under two letters in the Customs Sheds on your arrival.' The pamphlet is divided into four sections: Preparations; Movement to the Port; Embarkation and the Voyage; Arrival in the United Kingdom. Subsections include: 'Vaccination Certificate' 'Pre-Censorship' 'Pets' 'Despatches from Stations in India' 'Clothing Coupons' and 'Ration Cards'. Scarce: no copy on COPAC or OCLC. 'GIPD - M 2079 Army - 12-12-44 - 5,000.' 12 December 1944. paperback
