| The Cover Illustration Showing Wallace Morgan at Work at Neufchateau, France, by Fellow Official Artist J. Andre Smith |
Art of the American Soldier is a 295-page PDF download available from the U.S. Army's Center for Military History. It covers the full range of work done by both official war artists and and soldiers of various ranks and specialties that had an artistic bent. I would estimate that about twenty percent of the images in the document are from the First World War. Four from the Great War period are shown here. However, the part I personally enjoyed most is the great selection of illustrations from our post-Vietnam wars. Almost all were new to me and a great reminder of the sacrifices our servicemen and women are still making every day. Take in its entirety, Art of the American Soldier is a wonderful tribute to all those who served and sacrificed throughout the nation's history.
