Camp newspapers

[JackADriscoll]

I was out and about and I found this copy of a British unit magazine from WW1 I find it interesting because it was released November 1918 and the armistice hadn't quite happened yet. Anyway this got me to wondering were there unit newspapers during the war? If so does anyone have one to share?

At the very end of the siege, the Petersburg Express was printed by Federal troops on a liberated press that they found. I think there only were a couple issues though.

The 32nd Indiana (1st German) was said to have a camp newspaper called "The Blockhead" after August Willich's favorite good natured insult for his boys.

After their victory at the Battle of Lewisburg in May 1862, members of the 36th & 44th OVI "confiscated the printing press of the former Greenbrier Weekly Era and managed to produce" the appropriately named "Yankee". Apparently, only the first issue survives
