About this book

Corporal Hal Overton of the Thirty-fourth United States Infantry asks the battalion adjutant for signaling flags, so that he and Corporal Terry can learn wig-wagging from an expert sergeant. The story goes on to Overton's first real commands as a sergeant, with a young lieutenant nicknamed Algy joining the regiment, a private called Hinkey, the chase after a deserter, and a hunting trip with a night in camp. Later chapters bring in the navy as the services fight side by side. H. Irving Hancock wrote it as part of his Uncle Sam's Boys series for young readers.
