THE NOORDAM NEWS, "Somewhere on the Pacific", Sept. 16, 1943 The Noordam was a Holland American Line ship which was converted to a troopship by Bethlehem Steel to transport up to 2,400 troops for the U.S. War Shipping Administration. She was sent into action and transporting troops where needed.
This was a four page "camp" newspaper crudely created by a typewriter and mimeograph machine, likely on board the ship. There is much reporting on World War II with several illustrations.
Four pages stapled together, 8 by 13 inches, nice condition.
