The excerpt from the Forward is by G. C. MARSHALL, Chief of Staff.
“American Forces in Action” is a series prepared by the War Department especially for the information of wounded men. It was intended to show these soldiers, who have served their country so well, the part they and their comrades played in achievements which do honor to the record of the United States Army.
This paperback and all the 16 folded maps are in excellent, “like-new” condition. A similar used paperback (without any of the 16 folded maps) is currently listed on eBay for $34 +tax (see photo). I’m asking only $30 for my entire set.
