Hogan, Charles A., Cpl. & Cpl. John Webb III, compilers.
Puptent Poets of the Stars and Stripes Mediterranean.

[6], 113, [9] p., illus., index, 24 cm. Illustrated by Sgt. Stanley Meltzoff. Edited by Lt. Ed Hill. "The birth of the Puptent poets took place more than two years ago. No one had to be a great poet, nor even a very good one to break into print. Soldiers struck out boldly. What went into the paper was the best of the Army's verse-making of that day or that week. If the meter was wobbly and the rhymes eccentric or missing, no one got too excited." Stock#37999. Good+, stapled in color pictorial paper covers (chipped, worn, soiled).
