Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the efforts of the U.S. Army during the early years of the First World War to combat the rampant immorality and vice that plagued the troops during their training, which directly affected unit cohesion, morale, and readiness, as well as the health and safety of the troops. The author, a former chaplain to a National Guard regiment, details the changes he personally witnessed and the steps taken at his former unit, the 13th Pennsylvania Infantry, to provide positive outlets for leisure time within the camps and nearby communities so that the soldiers would not seek out the customary vices available to soldiers. This book further details how this was part of a broader effort of the entire U.S. Army coordinated by the Commission on Training Camp Activities.
