Photograph of Soldiers on a Coast Guard-manned LCI Listening to Music from a Portable Victrola as Their Craft Heads Across the English Channel to the Coast of France. Off to Battle on Canned Music. Yankee soldiers on a Coast Guard-manned LCI keep calm to canned music from a portable victrola as their craft heads across the English Channel to the coast of France. Hot records divert their thoughts from the grim possibilities ahead. The music is provided by Coast Guardsman Harry Firman (extreme left), motor machinist's mate third class, of 1156 Sutter Avenue, ST. LOUIS, MO.
