“We Have One Concern'
“We appreciate our responsibilities, but success in battle
is built on morale. Morale is a peculiar thinp. It can be no
stronger than the morale of the nation, or of the civilian
communities from which we come or in which we now reside.
We want to assure the civilian community that we will prove
by our conduct in this area that we have only one Concern,
and that is success in battle. We hope that they reciprocate
by fostering a very high morale in the troop that visit their
towns”
Excerpt from a talk by Major General G. R. Cook
on the activation of the 104th division.

solution of a situation that unless treated wisely might

soldiers and the civilian communities they visit on time away
from duties. This dissatisfaction is vague and undefineable.
Complaints we hear from soldiers appear to us at least—
