It will b tho duty of this volunteer Army to help protect the freedoms and main tain the pirace Mt have won at bo great a cost. Atomic power has increased rather than !e reaped the neceAity for our preparation, both in manpower and material. In the com ing atomic age, the United States mui-l maintain its military str-njth- to insure our national security and to promote world order. Suih grave responsibilities obiouly cannot le met by anything lesfe than the highest caliber of men. For thi reason, I asked Co!gre for legislation to increase the oppoitunitie .f the soldier in tlwi Regular Army. This legislation has been pand and signed by me, and is now in effect. In serving his country, a man can nw pH jjkk! pay, education, travel and security with family allowance for his dependenu and a new 20-year retirement plan that compares w ith or excels anything in American industry. These, and the mar fiber advantages of tho new Regular Army, should be made known to nil our service me a and their families. The Army has enibaiked iimi a mix Id wide latnpaipn to tt!it enough men so that, in demobilizing, we htll not sttip our service below the peacetime need. It is imperative il.t public support U given to this program. We muM replace as xm as possible nvni who have served long and arduously, and who wih to return to civil life. We must also build in Army of volunleeis adequate to all our requirements at home and abroad until the long range peace terms and military policies are woiked out. I hope that every individual and group will give earnest and enthusiastic co-operation to this great effort lo i build our Regiiar Army.
