Publisher's Synopsis
This work is an authentic compendium of poems, stories, one liners and anecdotes circulated throughout the World War II oeriod by the men and women in the armed services as wellas those in the factories and support services of the greatest war machine ever built. This raucous humor is especially poignant in it's representation of a nation's young finding levity in their most basic needs, displacing themselves from the impending reality of death. In honoring the Greatest Generation for their sacrifices, theese works are a testament to their dignity; that when faced with their own mortality, they still could laugh.
