‎Washington: United States. Department of the Army 1972. Hardback. Very good. Unlike many R.O.T.C. training manuals “Applied Leadership Development†deals with actually leading soldiers in the field with chapter titles such as “Estimate of the Situation†and “Security During Movement.†Later chapters include “Leadership Traits†and “Leadership Problem Areas.†This manual was published in February of 1972 as the Vietnam war was winding down and it may be of interest that a note says “This manual supersedes the version published 29 December 1967.†Pages are unmarked untorn and still securely bound but there are soiling and fading problems with the dark blue cloth binding. A printed sheet of mathematic tables and formulas with interestingly for a book published by and for the U.S. Army has a “Go Navy†logo and a hand-written sheet with a previous owner’s calculations are tipped in inside the front cover.

‎Army Intelligence, USSR‎

‎U.S. Army Intelligence School Cold War Archive on Soviet Espionage Insurgency and Ideological Warfare‎

‎1962. Cold War U.S. Army Intelligence instructional materials from the early 1960s issued for classified classroom use by the Army Intelligence School USAINTS at Fort Holabird Maryland. Includes printed and mimeographed reports charts bibliographies and student worksheets dealing with Cold War ideological conflict Soviet espionage and U.S. operations in Korea. . Materials date from 1962 to 1963 and are designated "SupR" Supplemental Reading "SO" Student Outline and "SIS" Student Information Sheet. <br /> <br /> Archive consists of 11 documents totaling 94 pages:<br /> <br /> Titles include: 1 Suggested Bibliography on Democracy Socialism and Communism SIS Nov 62 2 Totalitarianism Versus Democracy I SO Nov 62 3 Soviet Government SO Apr 63 4 Soviet Geography SO Dec 62 5 Communist Ideology I So Jan 62 6 Communist Ideology II SO Jan 62 7 Handout Number One: Questions asked of Americans abroad SupR Feb 63 8 Operational Data on South Korea - 1 SupR Sep 62 9 Constitution of the USSR Extracts SupR undated 10 Principles and Practices of Democratic and Totalitarian Governemnt SupR Mar 63 and 11 Nature of the World Communist Insurgency Threat SupR Sep 62. Together these documents offer a rare window into the ideological and tactical intelligence preparation of American soldiers at a point of peak tension in the Cold War era.<br /> <br /> Among the most striking items is a multipart 1963 Army Intelligence School handout titled “Questions Asked of Americans Abroad†which trains U.S. soldiers to anticipate hostile ideological interrogation. Drawn from pamphlets by the American Council for Nationalities Service the questions include criticisms of U.S. foreign policy racism militarism and capitalism from the presumed perspective of international adversaries. Under “Peace and Disarmament†the handout prompts soldiers to answer “Do Americans really want peace†and “Does the U.S. think it has the right to send spy planes over Soviet territory†In the section on the Cold War questions read: “Isn't it true that U.S. policies tend to divide the world into two hostile camps†and “Why are you Americans against Castro Isn’t he good for the Cuban people†The handout explicitly references domestic race relations with barbed queries such as: “Why do you Americans refuse to let Negro and white children go to school together†and “Doesn’t your treatment of Negroes show that you Americans regard the white race as superior to all others†Other lines of questioning cast doubt on American support for colonial regimes and probe the contradictions between U.S. rhetoric and material inequality: “If your economic system is so good how do you explain your millions of unemployedâ€<br /> <br /> An extensive and ideologically charged item is the 1962 supplemental manual titled Nature of the World Communist Insurgency Threat produced by the Department of Counterintelligence. Framing communism as an existential danger “facing the free world today†the document aims to lay “a foundation for future hours of counterintelligence instruction†with a focus on how the USSR used subversion to seize control of societies from within. The manual emphasizes that insurgency is misunderstood as merely guerrilla warfare; rather it is described as a multi-phase “process of subversion which progresses into armed insurrection†beginning with efforts to “condition the minds of a people against their government.†The text characterizes the Communist strategy as “subtle and conspiratorial†targeting “popular dissatisfactions revolutionary situations power vacuums economic underdevelopment corrupt oppressive or weak governments†in order to create fertile ground for infiltration. A key aspect of the document is its portrayal of Soviet influence as deeply insidious: “All intelligence assets of both the Communist Party and the state are actively busy†infiltrating every sector from “executive branches†and “cultural and student exchanges†to “news and travel agencies.†The manual goes on to outline the staged nature of insurgency emphasizing the so-called “subversive phase†as a methodical campaign of preparation in which “Communist activity does not usually reveal itself†but rather works to “create internal dissension or aggravate such dissension as already exists.†Leaders are recruited “agitators and propagandists†inserted and clandestine support systems developed until the state is sufficiently weakened to permit overt revolt. In sum the manual presents the USSR not merely as a military threat but as a master of covert political manipulation whose reach can “infiltrate all official and social institutions of the target country†using ideological warfare to hollow out democracies from within.<br /> <br /> Additional materials include “Operational Data on South Korea – I†dated September 1962 and prepared for Army Intelligence students studying East Asia. The packet contains detailed maps and charts showing the distribution of United Nations forces in Korea the organizational structure of the Republic of Korea Army FROKA and the political framework of both national and local governance. Its instructional notes reveal internal skepticism about the extent of U.S. command stating: “The Eighth United States Army did not have operational control over any units of the Korean Army†even after the 1961 military coup. The archive also includes a reference bibliography of texts annotated by the Army Intelligence School highlighting ideological perspectives. It calls Friedrich Hayek’s The Road to Serfdom 1944 “a bitter condemnation of socialism by an economist who is noted for his conservative views.†Descriptions of espionage works underscore Cold War anxieties: Alexander Foote’s Handbook for Spies 1949 is praised as “a good account of spy adventures†and Peter Deryabin’s The Secret World 1959 is noted as the “story of a former Soviet espionage agent who defected to the U.S.†Other selections include J. Edgar Hoover’s Masters of Deceit 1958 described as “a very popular account written by the head of the FBI of Soviet espionage operations in the United States.â€<br /> <br /> All documents are three-hole punched many mimeographed and retain original cover sheets with government-issued titles reference numbers and classified distribution notices. Minor edge wear rusted and sometimes delicate staples and paper toning. First page separated from one pamphlet. Overall very good condition. A revealing archive that documents not only Army intelligence strategy during the Cold War but also the ideological training used to prepare American soldiers for psychological and rhetorical conflict on the global stage. unknown‎

‎US Army, Cuba‎

‎Cuba Photo Archive of US Army Solder Harold Howard 1909-1913‎

‎1909. U.S. Cavalry Soldier Harold Howard including deployment to Cuba of 1909-1913 Photo Archive. Archive of nine vintage silver gelatin photographs documenting U.S. Army cavalryman Harold Howard his unit and deployments including to Cuba during the early 20th century. The collection comprises large formal unit portraits military camp scenes candid group shots and at least one identified location in Pinar del Río Cuba annotated 1908. The principal figure Harold Howard is named in two annotated photographs—one showing "Sgt Harold Howard" and another identifying him as "Great Uncle Harold" with a handwritten arrow pointing to a seated soldier in full dress uniform.<br /> <br /> Photographs overall range from approx. 10 x 13 in. to 3.5 x 5 in. Most mounted to original photographer boards a few with annotations in ink or pencil. General edge wear one or two with pinholes or adhesive remnants; a few mounts toned or chipped at corners. The two largest images are professional group portraits of Troop K 11th U.S. Cavalry at Fort Oglethorpe Georgia in 1913. The 11th Cavalry was ordered to Fort Oglethorpe Georgia after returning from Cuba in 1909. A formal group portrait in full uniform. Each measures approx. 10 x 13 in. and is mounted to original photographer board. These strikingly crisp photographs show a multi-tiered arrangement of uniformed soldiers posed on the steps of a frame building all in full dress with white gloves cap visors and epaulettes. In both images a regimental flag bearing "11" and "K" is visible. Close inspection reveals Harold Howard marked by name in one photograph. Two photo postcards double as personal correspondence with versos bearing handwritten messages from Howard dated April 1 1913 and September 9 1913 both addressed to "Mrs. A.L. Howard" of South Brewer and Bangor Maine. In the first letter Howard writes “Pretty bad weather here now rain nearly all the time. It is better than in the city.†The second provides further insight into his military duties and mobility: “Expect to leave here before the first of the month. we go down to Winn. for exhibition drills tomorrow.â€<br /> <br /> Among the smaller images is a rare group portrait taken in Pinar del Río Cuba dated 1908. It depicts around two dozen U.S. cavalrymen in campaign hats khaki shirts and white trousers gathered outdoors with a stable and horse at left. This image likely reflects one of the many post-Spanish-American War deployments in which U.S. forces remained in Cuba to supervise elections secure infrastructure and reinforce American political interests under the Platt Amendment. U.S. troops were stationed in Cuba until 1909 and returned in 1912-1913 during the second occupation. Other prints show informal camp life: one features soldiers on porch steps with camp cookware another shows a white-washed army kitchen with laundry strung overhead and a further image shows a group of Black cubans including women and children posed beside a thatched hut. The inclusion of one cabinet card of two soldiers standing in uniform before a stone building completes the set. A vivid photographic record of an enlisted American cavalryman serving during a critical period of U.S. imperial expansion and military activity in the Caribbean. Very good condition overall. unknown‎

‎Army, Alaska‎

‎Alaska's Aleutian Islands Army Engineers Photo Archive During the WWII-Era‎

‎American military operations in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska during World War II photo archive. Archive of 64 original black-and-white photographs each measuring 4.5" x 3.5" each. This archive captures the harsh conditions strategic infrastructure and personnel engaged in the defense and logistical efforts in the North Pacific theater. The 64 images provide a remarkable visual record of a lesser-known but vital front in the war showcasing soldiers of the U.S. Army and Army Engineers constructing and maintaining key military infrastructure in the rugged Aleutian terrain. Several photographs depict soldiers in cold-weather gear including M1 steel helmets field jackets and heavy-duty boots suggesting the harsh and unpredictable climate of the Aleutians. Some images show enlisted men armed with M1 Garand rifles and M1903 Springfield rifles standing guard near their encampments while others feature engineers and construction personnel using hand tools and mechanized equipment such as bulldozers to build essential facilities. A number of striking images show large timber logs arranged as makeshift chutes likely used to slide heavy equipment down steep hillsides to the shoreline facilitating the movement of supplies and machinery in the challenging terrain. Other photographs capture soldiers loading and processing timber which was essential for constructing fortifications bridges and other support structures. Many photographs just show the harsh and bare frozen landscape of this isolated area. these Alaskan archipelago contains both the westernmost and easternmost parts of the United States by longitude. As the photos show the islands are considered to be among the most geographically-isolated areas of the Northern Pacific with 57 volcanoes. <br /> <br /> Naval and maritime operations are also documented in the archive with images of transport vessels anchored near the Aleutian coastline possibly delivering supplies or personnel to the isolated outpost. The presence of Quonset huts and tented encampments suggests a semi-permanent military installation while wide-angle views of the mountainous landscape emphasize the isolation and strategic remoteness of the region. One particularly striking photograph shows an aerial patrol plane in the sky above a military camp reinforcing the vital role of air reconnaissance in securing the region from potential enemy incursions. The Aleutian Islands campaign was a critical yet often overlooked aspect of the Pacific War with American forces battling extreme weather conditions and enemy occupation on islands such as Attu and Kiska. This archive serves as a powerful testament to the perseverance and resourcefulness of American service members stationed in one of the most inhospitable wartime environments. The photographs are in very good condition with minor surface wear and occasional light creasing. This collection is an invaluable resource for historians collectors and institutions studying World War II’s northernmost front. unknown‎

‎U.S. Army 1st Cavalry Brigade Photo Album of Japan Occupation 1945-47‎

‎1945. U.S. Military Life in Occupied Japan 1945-1947. silver gelatin photographs documenting the experiences of American Army soldiers in the 1st Cavalry Brigade that were stationed in Japan during the early years of the Allied occupation following World War II. This extensive album consists of 323 Black-and-white photographs with images mostly around 3" x 4". A visually rich and historically valuable album chronicling American military operations daily life and interactions with Japanese civilians in the immediate postwar period. Also includes many photos of Japanese laborers construction workers farmers and children daily life and reconstruction efforts. The photographs provide an on-the-ground perspective of the occupation capturing both structured military life and informal moments among enlisted men. Album is oblong quarto approx. 10.5 x 15 inches mahogany lacquered boards with an illustration of a Japanese village at the base of Mt. Fuji on covers. <br /> <br /> The first section of the album focuses on military training and drills with multiple images of soldiers marching in formation assembling outside barracks and standing for inspection. U.S. Army 1st Cavalry Brigade played a significant combat role in the Pacific Theater during World War II eventually being part of the occupation of Japan. In this album several group portraits identify soldiers by name suggesting these were likely taken as keepsakes among unit members. A notable photograph captures a long line of troops marching past a wooden building possibly a barracks or administrative structure while another shows men standing at ease with relaxed postures a contrast to the rigid discipline of earlier images. The album also provides a glimpse into the social and recreational activities of soldiers including basketball games played on base staged holiday celebrations and posed group shots outside enlisted men’s clubs. One series of images depicts Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners with tables elaborately set with fruit bread and festive decorations suggesting an effort to maintain morale through traditional holiday observances. Scenes of military infrastructure are prominent including images of Camp McGill an important U.S. Army installation used for training and administration during the occupation. Locations referenced in the album including Yokosuka Yokohama and Camp McGill were key operational areas for the 1st Cavalry Division as they were among the first to land in Tokyo Bay on August 29 1945 and were heavily involved in the occupation of the Kanto region of Japan. Additional photographs document jeeps supply trucks and a military hospital providing insight into logistics and daily operations. Some images capture the aftermath of war including a demolished Japanese anti-aircraft gun and a bunker labeled "Inside an underground labyrinth of coastal defense."<br /> <br /> A significant portion of the album is dedicated to Japanese civilians particularly laborers farmers and children. One image shows a Japanese man in worn work clothes labeled "The Boilerman" likely a base worker employed in maintenance. Another striking photograph captures a group of Japanese carpenters and construction workers engaged in rebuilding efforts. Rural life is represented through photographs of women working in the fields villagers drying produce and children playing in dirt streets lined with simple wooden houses. Several images depict horse-drawn carts laden with straw or supplies illustrating the persistence of prewar modes of transportation in the postwar landscape. The final section of the album shifts to landmarks and captured war relics including a monument at the Perry Memorial in Kurihama commemorating Commodore Matthew Perry’s 1853 arrival in Japan. Another image shows an American soldier posing next to a wooden sign that reads ‘Off Limits to Members of the 1st Cav. Brig.’ indicating restricted zones for military personnel. One photograph features a rusted sunken Japanese vessel captioned “Raising a sunken ship†reflecting efforts to salvage maritime wreckage from the war. The album is well-preserved with binding intact and minor edge wear to covers. Photographs are crisp and well-composed with strong contrast though some show minor fading or surface creases. Gold-ink captions provide valuable firsthand descriptions of locations and subjects. Overall the over 300 photographs offer a significant photographic record of the U.S. military presence in occupied Japan offering an in-depth view of postwar military operations unknown‎
