Selling The Troops

This November 11th will be the 100th anniversary of the ending of World War One.  As in any place with a large number of military men there are retail companies that try to make a business of selling to the men in the military.  From the more base vice habits to the simple clothing stores they all try to provide a service to the men.  Looking at the ads in the Paris edition of Stars and Stripes in 1918 we can see the type of advertisements aimed at American troops.
