He aleo heard an officer, stationed here, a (Test Point graduate, say that this is not a '*new" army > that tliere is no such thin^ as a "new** amy. .snd he's right! Gone are the days of daily bes) rations for chow, the quaking and fearing private and the hard>boiled sergeant. Host of that stuff was "bushwah" with the intent of drawing laughs anyway. The privets isn't the stupid fool nor the wise - guy as he is often caricatured by cartoonists. Neither is the ser geant a hard-nosed bulldog type of individual. Over two-thirds of y»e Amy consists of enlisted tereounel who have gone beyond high schoul - fel lows who in civilian life were re sponsible citisens and now in hrmy life are responsible and honorable soldiers. just ordinary guys irtio have taken advantage of the oppor tunities they've had at their fing er tips to get ahead. The. sergeant to get the 'nost out of hi» men,must be somewhat of a phyehologist. Hs must learn to get the most throu^ cooperation, for it is a certainty that he will not do so through foros^ Americans have changed to a great degree since T7orld 77ar I, in 1917, only 20 per cent of the men had gone beyond a high school eduoa> tion. Today over S7 per cent have educations above high school. Nhile the krviy is flexible e- uough to keep abreast of such chang es, it has not changed fundamentally It is still possible for a private to advance to the rank of general in this nan's Army. If you have the goods and can produce - you will be recognised. It's the same Army that swe of us fought with in 1917 - that our fathers fought with during the Spanish Amorican TTar and chat our ar.sestors fought with in the TTar of 1812 and the Revolution. It is the Army i^ich fought to establish free dom for Its country and iHtich is now fighting to maintain that free dom.
