Increasingly, the military leaders of America are called upon to function - and function knowledgeably -in areas which are beyond the purely military. "Soldier Statesmen" is both an apt description of their broadened role in serving their country, and the title of this week's issue of THE BIG PICTURE. A major portion of the narrative is provided by President John F. Kennedy, through recorded excerpts of the speech which he delivered before the West Point graduating class of 1962.
