There's an eBay auction ongoing for a copy of a single-page article from
Scientific American, May 22, 1915.  It describes a new US Army truck mobile
radio station.  The article may be read from the auction description photo,
or saved and printed out:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/310416370011 .
There are five photos in the article.

It's interesting to compare this with the 1943 equivalent, the SCR-399,
28 years later.  

There doesn't seem to be much documentation of US Army radio usage at
the front during WWI.
