THE BULLETIN, IRWINTG?!, GEORGIA.
U. S. A. RECRUITING STATION
Postoffice buildin, Atlanta, Ga., Aug.
13, 1917.
To the Georgia Press:
Statement by your recruiting officer
Since the local exemption boards
have gotten under way and are cer
tifying men for duty i nthe army, it is
but fair to the -men who are effected
now and to those whose numbers have
not yet ben called, to lay the follow
ing facts before them.
Telegrams quoted below from the
war department covers every man’s
case explicitly:
“Washington, D. C., Aug. 20, 1917.
“Army Recruiting Officer, Atlanta, Ga.
“After a registered person has been
called for military service by his local
board and directed to appear for phy
sical examination, he ceases to be eii
gible so voluntary enlistment.”
. From the above it can be seen that
I the moment the board posts a man’s
। and mails him a letter .directing the
, man to report for physical examina-
I tion, that man loses his chance to voj-
I nteer.
I In the past few days a great num
i ber of men have found themselves in
the predicament of having been orde>
, ed to appear for physical examination
by their local boards and they have
i-u-mediateyl come up to the army re
cruiting office and attempted to volun
teer, but in each case the local re
ruiting officer has had to tell them
.hat. he could not accept them as vol
unteers after they had received their
notice to appear before their board.
These young men wailed too long,
and, consequently, lost their oppor
tunity to volunteer and choose their
service.
To the men whose serial number is
about to be drawn, I desire to say to
him that delay in his case means the
loss of his choice of service.
To all single men between the ages
of 18 and 40, I desire to say that if
you have no reason to keep you out
of the army it is your patriotic duty to
volunteer at once. You get your choice
of service now. There are vacancies
in practically all branches of the
trmy. You will all join eventually,
so why not now?
To the young man who is unwisely
advised to wait, I desire to say that
yo r advisers are depriving you of the
best chances for promotion and pre
fenrent. The trained soldier ceriain
y will command in this war, and the
best way to be trained is to enlist at
once. Don’t delay! The loss of a sin
gle day may mean the difference to
you of carrying a sword or a gun.
There is a recruiting station near
you, or you may see your local post
master for further particulars. Re
member this: If you wisli to choosi
your branch of the service, you .11:15-
volunteer before your exemptior
board calls you for physical examina
tion.
