Page 24 from Java: Handbook for Servicemen produced (in Australia?) in early 1945 under the auspices of the US War Department for units serving in the South-West Pacific Area (SWPA) and SEAC, offering advice on sexual behaviour to servicemen used to 'modern white girls' in approaching 'the average young native woman' and warnings about 'others' (prostitutes) in Java. 'She is often quite attractive—and when she is, she knows it—but she is usually as prim as the Early Victorians…' It ends, 'Java village society is intensely respectable. (Note: The incidence of veneral disease is high)'.
