Marcel van Hulst

Up for auction is a nice 1943  copy of the United States Army Technical Manual TM 30-602 entitled "French Phrase Book" as issued to the USA troops invading France. These booklets were issued to the troops just prior to the invasion of France during D-Day, to facilitate interrogation and communication of/between French resistance, French nationals, etc. It is in very good condition for its age,  issued and used in the field, and 100% original. 

Nice official and rare USA Army language guide that will be a great piece for your WW2 collection!
