Indianola, Miss. instant Pressing Cleaning done exclusively in building. 821 E 13th Phone 740 A message to you from the Chief of Staff April 6 is Army Day. It is a day which will have a special meaning for college men. More than half of you are veterans of the last war. Many of you are members of the Organized Reserve. Many others belong to the R.O.T.C. or National Guard. "All of you are making a vital contribution toward World Peace and the security of this nation. "The U. S. Army is the finest army in the world and the only one of its kind among the major powers. Tt is 100% volunteer. It is com posed entirely of civilian soldiers . . . men like yourselves who realize that a strong America is a peaceful America, and that the responsibility of making America strong rests in the hands of every American citizen. "The U. S. Army is not a large army, as armies go. It is shouldering tasks far greater than any other army of like size has ever attempted. Our occupation force in Japan is the smallest per capita of any modern occupation army. Our force in Europe is the smallest of the three major powers. "But behind this Army stand you men of the Organized Reserve and the R.O.T.C. I have known many of you personally. I have been with many of you in action. I know the fine type of men you are and the realism that leads you to equip yourselves with military training. "Further, I know the valuable service you can render the nation in time of emergency. A great deal of the success of fast mobilization and the actual winning of the war was due to the 106,000 trained Reserve Officers and the top notch National Guard units which were avail able for quick' action. "To you, on Army Day, I believe I speak for millions of Americans in offering commendation for the fine job you are doing.” You can get full details about the opportunities open to you in the Army’s complete military training program at any U. S. Army and U. S. Air Force Recruiting Station. CHIEF OF STAFF, U. S. ARMY V
