"What Outfit, Buddy?" by T. Howard Kelly is a story that shows the raw life of soldiers, seen through the eyes of Private Jimmy McGee, an American soldier in France during World War I. McGee's journey displays the tough parts of military life and the friendships soldiers make, but also the sadness that war brings. The story starts with McGee meeting William G. Preston, who he calls 'O. D.' because of his clean uniform. This meeting highlights the difference between someone new to war and someone who has been fighting. McGee uses humor to describe army life. The book sets up the funny and hard parts of war as McGee tries to help the newbie, O. D., get used to this crazy world.
