Description

Soldiers at Camp Wolters in Mineral Wells, Texas are holding a drive to collect scrap metal. A group of soldiers are shown digging through a pile of scrap metal in the back of a truck. The gleeful crew found a trombone among the donations and is pausing for a moment of sour music. Other found treasures are a bicycle handle, wheels, and a thermos. Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, November 3, 1942.
