Display Flag On
Army Day Tuesday

Every American should display
the flag on Army Day, April 6,
Major Clarence E. Anderson, COM
manding officer of the Army and
Air Force Recruiting Stations in
Toledo, Defiance, Fremont and Fos-
toria, said today.
Its one way that citizens can
demonstrate publicly the esteem
with which they regard the accom-
plishments of the Army ground
soldier in war and peace" Major
Anderson said.
Originally designated to COM
memorate the date on which the
United States entered the first
World War, Army Day gradually
has become the day on which the
u. S. Army and it's civilian COM
ponents: the National Guard, the
Officers Reserve Corps, and the
Reserve Officers Training Corps,
make kind of "annual report" to
the Nation.
Major Anderson said that in
many towns and cities, Army Day
also is enlistment day for scores
of qualified young men who mark
the occasion by joining either the
Regular Army or one of it's civilian
components.
"These young men," he said,
"realize more than most that a
strong America is a peaceful Amer
lea. Their enlistment represents
the highest expression of citizen
ship, an eagerness to help keep this
country at peace by helping to keep
it strong"
The Major said that he realized,
of course, that enlistment in the
Armed Forces is a privilege accord
ed only to young men who can meet
all the high standards demanded
by the Services. But, he added,
"all of US can do something on
Army Day, no matter how small,
to show these men we are with
them, at least in spirit"
