AN EMERGENCY
APPEAL
FROM OUR MILLIONS IN SERVICE
I
Yes, the war is over . . , but not the work of several
million G. I.’s! Ask any soldier what “Occupation Duty”
means —and he’ll tell you it may be the most important
job in the army right now, but one of the drearist ones.
He’ll tell you the novelty wears off soon, being in a
strange country among strange people. That the main
i drag in Tokyo or Berlin can’t compare with Main Street
1 back home.
There are millions of boys thousands of miles from
home who’d give anything to listen to an American song,
hear American jokes, or talk to an American girl again.
That’s why the U. S. 0. cannot and must not quit.
Your dollars must keep it going. For if ever those boys
needed a lift and a laugh, they need it now!
Yes, millions still in service are depending on YOU i
for a bit of cheer. For a large part of every dollar you
give to your local War Funnd Campaign goes to support
the U. S. 0.
The need is greater than ever. So try to give more
than ever, won’t you? Show the boys you haven’t for
gotten them!
