G.I. FIX BAYONETS: The U.S. Infantry from the American Civil War to the Surrender of Japan

Photographic portrayal of the evolution of the American GI from blue-coated CIvil War soldier to the helmeted GI who defeated Japan in World War Two.

The uniforms and equipment of the American GI in the century that followed the Civil War reflected America's sometimes reluctant but steady progress from militarily backward continent to global superpower. These fascinating photographs and paintings show how that evolution occurred. from the familiar blue tunics and French-style kepis of the CIvil War; to the Scout-style wide-brimmed hats of the Great War ‘doughboys' to the deep helmets and forage caps of the World War II infantryman.
