1268b. na. World War Two – Reminiscences of Your “Hitch” In the United States Coast Guard. A Pictorial Record of United States Coast Guard Temporary Reserve,Division 5A, First Naval District. Follandbee, Clifton A. (Ed.) Boston. 1946. 96p. Blue cloth wraps with gilt titles and USCG insignia on cover 11 ½” x 9 ¼”.

Few photos were made of the beach, boating and shore activities, of rugged winters, lashing storms, man against the elements. Nowhere else exists so complete an account of their important work during the war. Fully illustrated with over 195 photographs of men and division photos, vessels and duties in the Temporary Reserves in the First District in and around Boston, Gloucester and Bourne, Massachusetts. Also photographs of vessels, shore activity, training exercises, work shops and more. In very good condition, contents clean and tight, light wear to wraps. Quite scarce. (VG+). $88.
