Wartime entertainment takes the stage in this set of photographs, with costumed dance duos and troupes, comedy skits performed by servicemen, a vocalist fronting a small band, and a visiting USO entertainer posing in a Navy Jeep. Together with images of WAVES at a reception and women aboard a military transport, they record the morale work that sustained troops far from home.
