Description
With "town leave" as an incentive, soldiers of the 142nd Infantry, 36th Division pitched a camp for 3,000 men just west of Fort Worth Sunday afternoon for an Armistice Day Celebration. The pup-tent city was pitched in less than two hours. The site was just a barren field at 2:27 p.m. Sunday; the picture of the completed camp was made at 4 p.m.
