    Yank, the Army Weekly, September 22, 1944 edition, featuring a story on the liberation of Paris, written by Pvt. Howard Katzander. The United States military published the magazine during World War II. The magazine’s correspondents, photographers, and artists were primarily enlisted soldiers, with a few officers serving as managers, and it was initially available only to the U.S. Army in overseas theaters of combat. One of its most popular features, intended to boost the morale of military personnel serving overseas, included pin-up photographs of female actresses, models, and film personalities. The last publication was on Dec. 28, 1945, and the office officially closed on New Year’s Eve. (Image courtesy of YANK archives)
