May 1, 1919 -- 108th Engineers Calendar

May Calendar from 108th Engineers – American Expeditionary Forces

In little tiny print under this last line on the right it reads   --         C. L. T.  108th Engrs.

At first I wasn’t all that impressed with this little calendar that the soldiers obviously got so they could keep track of time.   However, when I looked at it closely, there is a large amount of detail – medals, patch, etc., so this is actually an amazing piece of work for such a throwaway little product.  I don’t imagine they thought anyone would still have this lying around 100 years later in 1919..
