the men. Esprit de corps came
into being. There were fewer
fights within the company and
more OF them outside it. From a
company commanders boast,
Capt. Cox's declaration of super
iority became fact and Battery D
now holds the record for the best
work with its field pieces.
They have hate for all Ger
mans. It's like the gang spirit
that pervades the whole Mission.
The old tribal laws that make II
wrong to beat a fellow and right
TO trample on an enemy are writ
ten in the code of Cox's Fighters.
They live in an eager hope OF
marching thru Berlin.
Discipline? There isn't any.
Instead there is a loyalty and an
understanding between officer and
men that transcends the narrow
bounds OF discipline and makes a
coherent, able fighting unit from
so many pounds of raw Drawn.
Glad It's Here.
The Missions gift to de-
mocracy's army is glad it's here.
