War games. Includes Private Charles Spears and Private F.C. Holquin. Note enclosed in sleeve: Innocent looking as a stovepipe, but to many tacticians as important an arm as the French 75 is this 81mm mortar, seen in the hands of a gun crew of the Seventh Division's 32nd Infantry at Fort Ord. The crew is getting ready to drop a shell into Malone, a tiny Western Washington lumber town, from a concealed position as the Blue Fourth Army opens its all out attack on invading Reds.
