"Out there, our boys are fighting, and they're
falling. Not one or two at a time, picked off by
a nice clean bullet. But fifty at a time in the
roaring, flaming hell of a shell burst.
"Out there, they aren't walking around in clean
white uniforms on neat decks. They're running
and slipping around on the bloody heaving flanks
of a carrier foundering in a sea of oil with her
guts torn out.
"They're not lying in cool, immaculate hospital
beds with pretty nurses to hold their hands.
They're flat on their backs on cold steel taking
a smoke and waiting for a doctor to get through
with the seriously wounded. '
"Out there, they're fighting and they're f allingbut
they're winningl And get this straight they're
not complaining. But I want you to know what
they're up against. I want you to know they
look to you to give them in your way the same
full measure of help and devotion they get unasked
from their own shipmates.
"And you can help them by giving generously
to the Red Cross.
"If you had seen the faces of men pulled naked
from the sea as they received kit bags and ciga
rettes handed out on the spot, by Red Cross
Field Directors you'd know what I mean I"
