GI Roundtable Series

The GI roundtable series was prepared under the direction of the US Army’s Division of Information and Education between 1943 and 1945 “to increase the effectiveness of the soldiers and officers as fighters during the war and as citizens after the war.” The accent in the booklets is on what the postwar world would look like, and reassuring servicemen that they would have a place in postwar America. These booklets provide an intriguing indicator that the postwar world was being seriously considered and developed fairly early in the military campaign.
