at the cum who have attacked us. Or think
about it at a little more protection for our fight

bring as many as possible home alive.
But think about it for the scrap in homes, farms
and factories has got to be moving to stock riles within
the next few weeks or it may be too late!
Maybe you don't know what it means to have produc

be hunkered down in a foxhole wishing for just one
more clip of cartridges. Or to see the enemy rolling
through your lines because you didn't have just a few
more tanks.
Or maybe you don't care!
We think you do. We feel that our whole community
is ready to rise up and bring in the scrap as soon as
you get a chance. So you're going to get that chance!

seen, to get in this precious material. And you're going
to pitch in, too, because this situation is serious.

for the neighbor's boy for those fine young chaps
you just passed, out on the street.
