The Yanks shove off again.

The Yanks shove off again. Corporal Joseph Melosh is shown at the Calas staging area in the uniform issued to him in exchange for the clothes he were in the ETO-Sun-tan cottong clothes and light underwear have replaced the heavier olive drab woolen togs and he has a heavy M-l rifle instead of a .30-caliber carbine. A bayonet which can be used for close infighting dangles from his cartridge belt and combat boots have replaced his service shoes and leggings. He carries the same type helmet which he wore in the ETO and is issued a similar water canteen. The uniform and equipment are designed for freedom of movement during tropical fighting.
