Description
Full title:Modernized combat training takes into account many hitherto ignored aspects of presenting a formidable front. Facial expression and accompanying sound effects are now considered highly important. The business of killing is not a gentlemen's game and a ruthless enemy is expected to be more impressed by an opponent who neither looks nor sounds like one. Here, privates Kato and Ota of the Japanese American combat team, in training at Camp Shelby, experts in bayonet routine, do their stuff for the camera. They are, in reality, nice boys, believe it or not. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. Camp Shelby, Mississippi.
