WWI Doughboy RPPC Photo – Amazing 90 Pound Full Pack

July 29, 2011August 3, 2011 / portraitsofwar / 1 Comment

A recent acquisition and possibly one of my best.  Finding studio photos of doughboys wearing full kits is nearly impossible, let alone one where the subject is fully turned around.  Add the crisp detail and interesting caption, and this becomes a spectacular example.
