We can lose that respect and with it our influence toward a just and peaceful world order, if we reduce our military forces to the point where they tecome weak or ineffective. "The Congress has enacted and the President has approved legislation which makes enlistment in the Regular Army more attractive than ever before i'n our history. It gives the soldier a position in the new peacetime Army that merits the respect of all our citizens. "Every American should know the valuable provisions in this new Armed Forces Voluntary Recruitment Act. They help place your Regular Army on the highest plane any army on earth-- with advanced study, training and travel at good pay in a career of high duty and responsibility.

"There is a solid obligation on all of us to safeguard the victory we have won at such enormous cost. 'The rapid rebuilding of our Regular Army is a vital necessity if we are to meet that obligation."
