10th Ord. Bn.

Hq. & Hq. Det. 10th Ord. Bn. un-
derwent the strenuous Third Army
Physical Fitness Test last week. The
city combat course was very dan
gerous. However the city of
Charleston was taken" without the
loss of single man. The infiltra-
ton course Cat night was lighted
during the problem by tracers that
danced in mid air from 80 cal. ma
chine guns. Every man laid close to
the ground without the slightest in
dciation of being frightened, while
the bullets rang over their heads.
The four-mile march led by Capt.
Levine was made by some of the
men in 48 minutes. One of the men
during the course of the march de-
veloped an acute gas pain which ne
cessitated the slowing up of his ca
dence. An officer was at the spot
however, and he joined the soldiers
cadence and brought him in only
two minutes late, giving the Bn. an
average of 909o.

Best Bottle Equipment Is
Expensive But 1t Shortens
Wars, Saves Lives---Bu Bonds
BY LIEUT. GEN. BREHON

Commanding General, Army Servic,
Forces

Commanding General, Army Service
Forces
Campaigns are won by armies sup
piled with ample reserves of the
best equipment that can be produc-
ed. The best battle equipment is ex-
pensixe but it shortens wars and
saves lives.
A Garand rifle costs $50. 1t is
the best rifle in the world You
would not have one American SOL
der at a disadvantage because the
money with which to buy that rifle
was not supplied by you
A calibre 80 Browning machine
gun costs $740. There is no better
machine gun made Thousands of
these weapons will be needed as we
storm the fortress of Europe. To be
short a machine gun means that
some boys life is forfeited. Your
investments in bonds will help in
sure that we have enough.
A 'jeep" costs $1,165. A "jeep"
at the right place to relay mes
sage in action will save company.
Your money will help put plenty of
these sturdy carriers at the right
place.
One half-track anti-tank vehicle
costs $4,000. These speedy units
have the tanks number. We must
have hundreds of them as we drive
into the heart of Germany. Your
bonds help buy these tank-killers.
We must have every one that is
needed, when and where it is need
ed.
A los calibre field gun costs $25,-
0G0. This gun blankets the enemy's
reserve positions and blasts his sup
port when we are moving forward
on the offensive. Ample, effective
artillery cuts battle losses You
can help save the lives of our fight
. ing men by investing your dollars
in artillery that will smash the way
to victory.
A General Sherman tank costs
100000. When the decisive battle
is fought against the nazis, we want
enough ShermanS there to crush
the way to victory. Many of these
monsters will be needed. Would you
have it said of you: "He could have
helped put another tank in the bat
tleline, but did not?"
Rifles, machine guns, tracks,
field guns, tanks-and all the rest
Of the impediments of war flow from
the production lines helped by the
money you provide in war bonds.
Your best assurance of early victory
is to give your army these weapons

subscribing to the third war loan to
the limit of your ability.
