The Scrapbooks of Willis B. Haviland

An Earlybird's Scrapbook

USNAS Porto Corsini (1918)

Book Two, Page Twelve, Left

"Comic policemen, during Liberty Loan drive at Porto Corsini, Italy."
(The liberty Loan was a program where personnel were encouraged to pledge part of their pay as loans for the war effort.)

Note: This photo also appeared in the Christmas, 1918 edition of The Leading Edge with the fllowing caption -

"Riverside Drive" during the Liberty Loan Parade, showing Chief of Police Coatsworth and his staff - the mighty arm of the law!
(Coatsworth undoubtedly refers to Ensign C.J. Coatsworth.)
