Jan. 06, 1966 - The End Of The Soldier's Back Page Pin-UPS: For 20 years beautiful, recently clad Windmill girls, stars and starlets, Naafi and Ats pin-ups have grace the back cover of the Soldier - the British Army's official monthly magazine. Until today. When the exe falls on the officially approved lovelies and they become another victim of today's modern, technological Army. On the back cover of this month's issue, out today, there is no glamour. Just cartoons. The magazine explained: There was no doubt, they say, that the long-postponed are must fall on those pretty necks. The older soldier will regret her passing, but the pin-up means less to today's soldier'. Photo shows At Chelsea barracks, soldiers read the old Soldier (left) and the new cartoon issue
