The US Army Corps of Engineers Supply Maps With "Contours"

In more ways than one... The Corps of Engineers placed pin-ups on the front of map update documents during WWII. This was an attempt to assure that the person in command of a unit, but also the common GI (according to the remark: "For general distribution. NOT for staff use only") would use the latest available maps. The "contours" remark is a double entendre. The female obviously has contours, and plenty of them.
