Military Postcards.

March at camp Dix.

The kissing tree.

You've got a ton of nice cards you've posted. Thanks for sharing.

If you need to blame my posts you would have to blame gussyboy1 for given me the idea of digging out some old cartons.

I enjoy looking at the Social History that is portrayed on old post cards. these ones are very nice! Thank-you for sharing!

Great cards, show more.....

is that a young Lee Marvin leading the march ??

Winding down for the night. Will try to post some more tomorrow. Thank you.

I have a fairly nice selection from World War I. My Great Uncle served during this time.

No such luck..Kaiser Wilhelm just managed to abdicate in NOVEMBER 1918 and fled to exile in Holland..who would not allow him to be extridited as a war criminal...22 years later Germany showed their appreciation by blitzkrieging little Holland !!

Here are two picture post cards made at camp. My Great Uncle was also wounded in action at Champage while serving in the 5th Machine Gun Battalion. One of my side projects is taking all of his correspondence,awards,military orders and packing up for WWI veterans museum. Still transposing handwriting on letters. Even have orders for the wearing of Gold Wound Chevron with the shrapnel chunk he was wounded with. Will be posting some of the covers later on.
