Trie proudest title
in the Army
It CONSISTS of two simple words.
Yet every soldier who's worth his salt covets it.
This title is simply:
'"Good Soldier."
It isn't just happenstance that so many women
in the WAC have earned this title the proudest
in the Army.
For wherever Wacs are working, both here and
overseas, there you find a job well done. And done
with a spirit so gallant and fine that high Army
officers everywhere say of the WAC ...
They're soldiers. Good soldier?'
'Good Soldier"
Good soldiers...
