Patting his belly, a soldier in green is smiling after feasting on chocolate; lettering in green, brown and blue. This is a lighter side of the home-front war effort in which money was being raised to bring sugary smiles to the faces of those overseas. Other funds existed to provide soldiers with books and tobacco. Rawls p. 255.
