Soldier's Guide to the United States satirized for GIs

A spoof guide from the 45th division in Italy parodies U S soldiers’ travel manuals. It lists mock travel cues from North Africa to Sicily and mocks manners and behavior, noting generosity with cigarettes and brief jabs at rationing, dress, and entertainment while lampooning military cliché and invective.

How to Get Along with Americans in Sicily

A compact guide warns travelers that traffic keeps to the right, etiquette hinges on respecting women, and adapting to American ways is essential. It notes language quirks, pronunciation hints, and a humorous caution about ingratiating with soldiers by inquiring if they have overseas experience.
