Gilbreth, departed last night for Arcadia, MO., where combat problems will be worked out by 41 officers of the 420th Infantry, Reserves, as the final part of their tank training at Jefferson Barracks this season.
"Modern Doughboys: In the midst of past and present entanglements, American doughboys keep in trim, forming the bulwark of American defense in a time of peace. These soldiers are part of the Sixth Infantry at Jefferson Barracks."
