Theater Special Services Tours - A Different 'Grand Tour' Of Europe. Theater Special Services

"This handy little booklet was published in 1944 or 1945 by the Theater Special Services for use by American soldiers on leave in the European Theater during World War II. Opportunities for travel to the Riviera, Paris, London, Holland, Denmark, Switzerland, and Rome are described in succinct detail within the 14 pages. A notable excerpt reads: "Not only are you offered a chance, probably never again to be experienced, of traveling at a cost extraordinarily low, but this is a time when mutual understanding is necessary among nations of the world.I feel that through direct contact with the peoples of other lands Americans may do much to promote Allied goodwill and pave the way to an enduring peace, for only through direct contact can we ever come to a friendly understanding of other people and their ways."
