The Soldier’s Chronology by James W. Atkinson is about the U.S. Army’s prenatal culture and its continual change in elements such as organization, weapons, transportation, communications, uniforms, insignia, medicine, and aviation. This hardcover reference book published in 1993 contains 4,000 factual entries in time order about the Army’s evolution—about its men and women—not wars and generals.
First editions reside at the Pentagon, the Library of Congress, and all branches of the U.S. Armed Services; colleges, universities and military academies; historical associations; and libraries in Australia, Canada, Germany, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. Although The Soldier’s Chronology is becoming harder to find and more costly to purchase, you might retrieve it in a nearby library or via interlibrary loan.
