Title: Pup tent for army flyers designed for modern comfort
extracted text
SLEEPING in jungle, desert,
 or arctic waste—or wherever
their tasks may take them—
still means a good rest for Army
flyers equipped with the Air
Corps A-2 shelter, this war's
modern descendant of the pup
tent. It is a highly portable,
‘waterproof covering that can be
put up in a few minutes with
four light aluminum tent poles
and is easily camouflaged. Ven-
tilating windows can be locked
shut if the weather requires, and
mosquito bar protects against
insects. The tent’s pneumatic
mattress is inflated simply by
kneeling -on an inflating bag.
