    Yank, the Army Weekly cover for September 15, 1944. The United States military published the magazine during World War II. The magazine correspondents, photographers, and artists were primarily enlisted soldiers, with a few officers as managers, and were initially made available only to the U.S. Army in overseas theatres of combat. One of its most popular features, intended to boost the morale of military personnel serving overseas, includes pin-up photographs of female actresses, models, and film personalities. The last publication was on Dec. 28, 1945, with the office officially closing on New Year’s Eve. (Image courtesy of YANK archives)
