Men of the division took the pictures, wrote captions and copy, drew cartoons, laid out the pages, supervised the printing and dis tributed the finished product to the companies where sales were reported as excellent. The current magazine is 32 pa ges, styled on the format of the nation's leading picture magazine While its content is- primarily pic torial, there is enough written ma' terial.so that the story is com pletely told. It has been designed not only for immediate interest but to contain those things which will make it enjoyable to the folks back home now and to the GI in later years. One of the most popular feat ures is a photographic essay on a typical army day which takes the soldier from the moment he wakes in the morning, through the busy training schedule of the day, until far into the evemng. Sgt. George Baker of Yank mag azine, one of the most famous sol dier-cartoonists of the country, has contributed an original draw ing of his well-known "Sad Sak.' The Trailblazer is the work of the public relations office of the 70th division G-2 section. Captain George H. Godfrey, 70th public relations officer was in charge.
