Entitled: "Hand it to 'em - The Salvation Army gets it to the boys in the trenches, over there." Lithograph depicting a woman of the Salvation Army carrying food on battlefield. The Salvation Army won its recognition during World War I for its work overseas. The entire overseas assignment of officers was 241 men and women, backed-up by 268 supplemental workers in the United State bringing the total to about 500 individuals. The women as well as the men went where the troops happened to be, and often were in danger from shells and gas. The women, earned the nicknames "Doughnut Lassies" and "Doughnut Girls". More than just filling an empty stomach, the presence of the women provided the soldiers with the boost their spirits needed during an extraordinarily difficult time. They also provided writing supplies, stamps, and clothes-mending for the men.
