EDITORS COMMENTS
A Humorous Take on Army Life: Soldiers in a Small Tent during WW2, Circa 1940s This charming comic postcard, titled "What it's like to sleep in a small tent with seven soldiers!", offers a lighthearted glimpse into the rough and tumble world of army life during World War 2. The illustration, reminiscent of the works of renowned British satirical artist Donald McGill, depicts a cramped and chaotic scene inside a small army tent. At the center of the image, a soldier in full khaki uniform lies on his back, his eyes closed in apparent exhaustion. He is surrounded by six other soldiers, each in various stages of undress and disarray. One soldier, wearing a pince-nez, sits up in his sleeping bag, a fox fur hat in hand. Another, a middle-aged man with a respectable red dress and a woman's stocking hanging from his foot, looks on in disbelief. A third, a woman in a red dress and a fox fur, stands at the tent flap, her arms crossed and a disapproving look on her face. The scene is filled with humor and fun, as the soldiers jostle for space and the woman expresses her frustration at the chaos. The rough and ready atmosphere of army life is on full display, with the soldiers' disheveled appearance and the woman's elegant yet out-of-place attire adding to the comedic effect. Despite the chaos, there is a sense of camaraderie and community among the soldiers, as they share the hardships and challenges of wartime life. This postcard offers a humorous and enduring reminder of the unique experiences and bonds that were formed during the 1940s, a time of great sacrifice and resilience.
