...Office of the Center Commander.  Fort Knox, Kentucky, May 14, 1942.  Found what I believe is a nice piece of history.  I have done some research and I love that it has early training for Tank warfare.  Seems to be a complete manual with handwritten notes.  I attached some pictures below.  I am trying to decide if this is something I want to keep in my own collection to hand down or if it has significant value to resell.  My first post here so I apologize if I broke any etiquette.   I read over the FAQ before hand but I may have missed something.

That's pretty neat.....if my Dad was still alive he'd be able to tell you exactly what it is, he was an instructor at the ARTC from 1944-46.

 

A manual for Armored Forces training with classroom notes, pretty sure this was typical for most soldiers who were at Ft. Knox.....I particularly like the notes on the limited standard small arms, like the M1917 Enfield and M1917 Colt.
