Hew you can help YOUR ARMY DO ITS PART FOR PEACE With the President’* proposal for the discontinuance of Selective Service on Match 31, America will rely on voluntary enlistments for the maintenance of the Regular Army at authorized strength. In view of world conditions today, this is a step of the gravest importance to every American citizen. Never before in history has any nation raised and maintained a million-man army, by the volunteer system alone. Our ideals, our belief in individual freedom, our safety and our duty to promote world peace aH are bound up in this decision. This is your Army, and voluntary enlistment is your choice. It must not fail. With your help it will not fail. The Army must continue to 1 provide adequate occupa tion forces overseas, to supply these fqrees; and to help in lmnnintr Anmrica airnn Cf nrifi appiii*p, 111 JvtXpillg ZUllCl ILtt Dtl Bot'iuui Your help and understanding can do much to en courage a steady flow of 3-year voluntary enlistments, necessary to sound training and the efficient performance of the Army’s task. When you discuss this subject with your sons, brothers, husbands or friends who may be considering an Army career, bear in mind the advantages offered by a 3-year enlistment. Among them are the choice of branch .of service and of overseas theater where openings exist, and the opportunity for thorough training in valuable skills. % A job in the new Regular Army compares favorably with the average in industry, and has more opportunities for promotion than most. [You can help by giving your respect and support to the man who enlists voluntarily to do his part in carry ing out your country’s world-wide obligations to build a peace that will endure. , r \ ' ROBERT P.
