Description: Rifles And Machine Guns Of The World's Armies - Paperback Book by Captain Melvin Maynard Jr. - Fighting Forces Series - First Edition I think this Infantry Journal is special because it was obviously owned by a service member.The book says The Fighting Forces Edition was available to the members of the Armed Services only. There is some information about the owner of the book hand written on the cover:Pvt (I believe that is what it says, standing for Private) John V. Graham 13-140-667July '45 I did a little investigating of the Army Serial Number through The U.S. National Archives & Records Administration and found that Private Graham was in the Air Corp and enlisted in 1945.He enlisted in New Cumberland Pennsylvania 02.21.1945.He was Enlisted Reserve or Medical Administrative Corps (MAC) Officer. The book is in nice vintage condition.The first page has a small chunk missing.The pages are yellowed from age.The cover is showing wear and tear and is dirty from age.The back few pages are not as tight as the rest of the pages. I really hope this book finds the right home and will be appreciated.I feel it is an important part of history.Does Private John V. Graham's book belong in your home? - Rifles, Machine Guns, Army, Fighting Forces, Military, Submachine Guns, Pistols, Antivehicle Weapons, Automatic Cannon I am a book lover and a book reader myself!
