Yancey County A C. A. PULPWOOD PLAYED VITAL ROLE IN ALLIED INVASION Every man who cut pulp wood in 1943 and early this year can feel justly proud of the initial success of the invasion. For he had a part in making that first as sault on Hitler’s European Fortress possible. P Behind that landing on the western coast of France were months of prepara- j tion in which thousands upon thousands of tons of equipment and supplies were moved from this coun try to our base in England. The shipment of goods ov erseas prior to June 6 was the most gigantic movement of fighting equipment ever undertaken. This machine age requir es more than double the amount of material needed for each man in the last war. It requires, for exam ple, 700,000 separate items, ranging from tanks to watch springs to equip a modern army, and many of these must be provided in millions. Counting everything such as trucks, clothes, and wea pons, it takeg ten tons of organic equipment to get one man into the European theater of operations, and it takes sixty pounds of supplies to keep him there In this magnificient un dert iking our men in Eng lanc, pulpwood played a vital role. It°not only pro vided the material for packaging and protecting many of the weapons and supplies; it was used in the manufacture of many o f the items as well. For in stance, U. S. invasion for ces used 125,000,000 maps alone. F But the job has not been finished. The military need j for pulpwood still exists . and will continue until our boys march into Berlin and Tokio. Pulpwood has gone to war. Let’s keep it moving here — 1 ■ ■■ . t r f* v film I^mK^SßSLft* ’’NBig r Xs\l ■ «:'*■ s ~t ' rj ’ <- * %*// m i < AMERICANS! p /A \ You in the factories.
