The Clubmobile was a special refreshment station that would travel to several Army bases each day to visit the soldiers. The Clubmobile carried a kitchenette, a phonograph and books, incidentals such as candy and cigarettes, and had tables that converted into beds. Jack's uniform includes: a jacket with ARC collar insignia, an ARC patch, and other insignia; a skirt; a cap with a nice enameled cross insignia.
