GI Holy Days: Jewish Holidays and Festival Observances Among the Armed Forces Thoughout the World. Preface by Rabbi Dr. David de Sola Pool.
Illustrated throughout. pp. 59. Original pictorial wrappers. 16mo.

National Jewish Welfare Board, New York: 1944.

A charming pamphlet of anecdotes by Jewish Chaplains and military men relating to Sabbath and Holiday observances commemorated in exotic locations around the world - often on the front-lines. “Do they celebrate Purim in America, too?” a Persian Jew innocently asked a U.S. Chaplain as he assisted in preparations for a G.I. Purim in Iran (p. 42).
