G.I. Collector’s Guide, Volume 2 from Casemate has arrived
Along with the arrival of volume 2 is the long awaited reprint of The Government Issue Collector’s Guide, Volume 1. If you missed it the first time around, make sure to get it this time before we run out again.
Also, available now is the perfect companion for the German soldier, Deutsche Soldaten. Similar to The Government Issue Collector’s Guide, Volume 1 & 2, this book is packed with thousands of full color photographs of the uniforms and equipment used by the soldiers of World War II.
After the release of Volume 1, many readers and collectors pointed out several pieces they possessed which were missing from the book. Although including each and every item issued to the American soldier is a near impossible goal, the author started making a list of what should included in a second edition.
All chapters from volume 1 have been revised and updated (among others: uniforms, signal and medical equipment) and new sections have been added, including personal equipment, Stateside training, and the life of POWs in German camps.
More than 1,000 new artifacts with detailed captions are featured in this completely revised new work. Volume 2 of the G.I. Collector’s Guide provides a complete and unequaled source of American ground force documentation for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
