The Military Men of the Year
General George C. Marshall is rated as the man of
the year because he has directed the organization of
the greatest armed force in our history, in the brief
period of two years since Pearl Harbor. As contrib
uting to the success of the war he is rated above Sta
lin, Churchill and Roosevelt, because of his military
genius. Not only has he organized a great army,
navy and air force, and provided their equipment,
but has directed the supply of material to our allies
under lend lease and timed the operation of forces
of war with a strategy that seems almost unbeliev
able.
In addition to the chief of staff, the rise and build
up of American military leaders during the past two
years has been phenomenal, particularly in compar
ison with other nations. Gen. Eisenhower has been
chosen to lead the invasion forces. McArthur has
established a great record in the South Seas. Ad
mirals King, Nimitz and Halsey have shown wonder
ful ability under many adverse circumstances in the
Pacific. Generals Stillwell and Chenault on the Bur
ma front, Clark in Italy, Patton of the Tunisian and
Sicilian campaigns, Arnold, chief of the American
air force, and Carl Spaatz and Doolittle, leaders of
the air invasion forces on the continent, all are noted
for brilliancy in action, as are many others who have
been chosen to lead American arms on fifteen fronts.
Everywhere our forces are they are led directly or
assisted by our own generals who are giving a fine
account of themselves.
The British have a great general in Montgomery,
and Mountbatton in East India and China is creat
ing a great fighting force—aided by Stillwell and
Chennault. England also has others in the Middle
East anfl on the Western front who have not yet risen
to renown. Russia as Vanputin and Timoshenko
and others who have shown great leadership and
strategy in the maneuvering of troops and accom
plishment of results, which history will record as
some of the greatest generals of the war. This year
and perhaps years to come, may bring forth other
great heroes and military leaders. The remarkable
thing is the present predominance of such men in
our own American armed forces on land, sea and in
air. These men were untried and unknown two years
ago. Like in all great emergencies they have come
forth to meet unexpected duties.
Out of the .war for American freedom we found
our Washington, Hamilton and Jefferson, in in the
Civil war Lincoln, Grant and Lee. This power lies
in the latent force of our American democracy and
our desire for freedom. It is the same intelligent
and spiritual power found within our boys who,
without detracting from the greatness of leadership,
should be rated as the real men of the year. With
out their spirit and ability and devotion to the coun
try’s cause, our leaders could not rise to such glor
ious heights.

"* T ough LUCK
With so many home repair items on
the critical list, now is no time to run
into tough luck. A broken window
may not be so bad, but a real fire or a
bad windstorm could be very
serious
indeed. Replacements on many items
are practically unobtainable. So be
extra careful now about fire. Eliminate
every possible hazard. AND be sure
your insurance fully covers the present
value of your home property. Check
fire insurance, windstorm insurance,
smoke damage insurance, hail insur
ance, etc. See that you are fully pro
tected by adequate insurance limits.
This agency offers its services to home
owners. We will gladly, and without
obligation on your part, check over
your present insurance and submit
recommendations regarding the kinds
of protection you should have; and
in amounts which will truly protect
your investment. Why not see
about it today?
