Attention of Dept. 45
Ask Joe ... a husky welder in a Michigan
tank plant. His torch has been hotter
than a machine gun all morning. So's he.
And tired. He's due for a recess. I'm due
to give him an ice-cold quick-up that
sends 'iim back to work with a smile.
Ask Brenda ... a debutante on a mobile
canteen in Washington. She dishes out
doughnuts and hot dogs and smiles from
dawn to dark. She*s ready for a lift of
her own. T'm coing to see that she gets it.
Who am I? Only a five-cent s*tt dick
...but I've grown up with all these
folks . . . been part of their lives
for years. Understand? They're
my friends!
So when they work hard and
fight hard, they take time oui
with me for a quick-up. 1 s^nd
them back on the job rarin' to
go. Thousands of times every min
ute! Millions of times every day!
\%k Bill ... a naval guard in San Diego.
He's been on dock dut y all day . . . cov
ering the waterfront. !)n his toes! Hot.
He'll feel that his lot is a little happier
.?R ? . . ;;ftor he's m.-t .ir* with me.
You can't let a friend down. So
I'll be in there pitching, bringing
a bit of relief and courage to the
folks who are working and fight
ing to win the war.
If I'm not always in your store,
remember I'm working with
Uncle Sam. But when I am
around, you can be sure of one
thing: that my quality is still
"Best by Taste-Test."
