Summary

Original Caption: Wounded veterans enjoy New York hospitality. Everything possible that would contribute to the joyousness of the occasion was provided wounded American veterans who were guests of Women's Volunteer Motor Corps of American Red Cross in parade of 27th Division in New York on March 25,. Driving the car was all one soldier wanted and the fair pilot of the machine promptly turned over the wheel, the same giving her more time to devote to her guests.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
