A baffling post-war problem
to fascinate the mind,
is what to do with Hitler
and all his callous kind.
We all agree for Hitler
the worst is none too bad—■
So here is our suggestion

to civilian life after the war. |
Right now nearly 70,000 men
and women in service throughout !
the world are utilizing a few I
hours of their off-duty time each
week to study through the Insti- |
tute. Some of them are work-
ing for promotions in the Anny. ■ :
Others are working for high
school diplomas or college de- l
grees. Still others are planning
to take over a good job after the I
war. I
All use the same medium —• |

through the Institute by high 7
schools, technical schools, and
leading colleges and universities |
in America. I
Right now there are more than 4

. Any other man would have ul-
cers, but not Bob Hope, the
Army’s one-man morale division,
says Sidney Carroll in his article
“Where There’s Life” in the
January issue of Esquire maga-
zine. Hope holds down a full-
time job as a movie star, as a
radio comedian, and as the coun-
try’s leading performer at camp-
shows here and overseas, without
a sign of an ulcer. Scientists try
to explain Hope’s amazing pow-
ers of endurance by calling him
an energist . . . one who is unable
to get tired. But author Carroll
regards Hope’s tirelessness as a
miracle. Whatever it is, it’s en-
abled him to entertain more serv-
icemen than any other performer
in this war.
Hope’s recent tour of the Brit-
ish Isles, Africa, Sicily and Ice-
land has been called a saga, and
Hope himself is almost legendary.
He’s not content to rest on his
record. Retiring to Del Monte,

tians, is a tall, handsome intelli-

Soldiers overseas are becoming
culture conscious according to the
findings of a survey made public
by Maj. Gen: Frederick H. Os-
born, Director of the Morale Ser-
vices Division.
The report shows that Ameri-
can soldiers stationed abroad
want some means of continuing
their education in their leisure
time. Interest was expressed in
such subjects as engineering, eco-
nomics, the liberal arts and the
sciences. Men wanted to know
how they could “bone-up” on
these studies.
Apparently the school-hungry
soldiers were unacquainted with
the Armed Forces Institute which
provides courses in all of these
In the Quartermaster Co. of
the Cactus Division they’re tell-
ing of the absent minded serge-
ants who put up one night in a
Gainesville hotel. One was un-
accountably chilly all night and
didn’t learn until morning he had
slept between the blankets and
the bedspread. The other serge-
ant admitted it had seemed queer
to him that there should be a
partition in the bed.

So when they sue for peace I
think we should let them have it.
Then we’ll be happy over here
and they’ll be happy raising flow-

have forgotten the whole thing.
Then’s when we can bomb holy

Courage Fights Even Certain Death
Cornered, some men turn and run; others choose to!
fight it out. It was to one of the latter breed that the first
Congressional Medal of Honor awarded on European soil in
World War II, went just recently.
For knocking out an enemy tank at thirty yards with a
tommy gun, Lt. David C. Waybur of Piedmont, Calif., re-
ceived from Lt. Gen. Mark W. Clark the nation’s highest
honor for valor.
Waybur was leading his reconnaissance platoon in Sic-
ily when four light Italian tanks cut through his column,
trapping his first three jeeps between a blown-out bridge and
high canyon walls. ‘
The logical thing was to surrender. The 24-year-old
officer chose to attack. When the jeeps’ ammunition was
exhausted, Whybur, seriously wounded, limped out, tommy
gun in hand, onto the moonlight-flooded road. He killed two
Italian crewmen in the first tank which careened to a crash.
While the three remaining enemy tanks continued their
fire, Waybur and six companions sought the slight cover that
sparse cactus plants could afford. Four of the American
group were wounded. One unwounded soldier was sent back
to warn the rest of the platoon not to enter the Italian trap.
For two hours the Italians continued to rake with fire
the American position. The latter’s determined stand and
the approach of daylight were telling on the Italian morale.
Crews of two enemy tanks abandoned their armored houses.
The fourth tank turned tail and escaped.
Lt. Waybur’s deed was spectacular even in a spectacu-
lar-studded war, but his line of offense has been repeated by
Americans in every war theater.
These are the boys who are daily stepping out in the
open to challenge and engage the enemy. Their lives are the
shields for American secprity at home, for towns bomb-free,
for soft beds and warm food and family love.
They are the reasons Americans at home, including us
here in the Eighth Service Command, are buying, and will
keep buying, War Bonds to give them more jeeps, more tom-
my guns, more ammunition, and a shorter war.

G. 1.
California, for a four-day rest
after his return from abroad, he
played three camp shows during
the time. Now he’s making plans
for a new tour of the South Pa-
cific.
Hope started appearing at
camps when Selective Service
was a new and unfamiliar term to
Americans, and the war was still
far away. When Pearl Harbor
came, he tried six times to enlist.
The Army had other ideas for
him ... he was to entertain at
military camps and sell bonds.
He’s sold enough war bonds to
build a fleet of ships.
' Last April Hope started the
African tour. Chock full of pills
and anti-toxins, Hope, Miss Lang-
ford, Tony Romano, and Jack
Pepper set out for England by
t Clipper. He went through the
British Isles, top to bottom. He’d
come riding into an Army camp,
and when G. I. spotted the ski-
snoot and the chin that hangs like
a hammock, and they nearCt the
first words of that dot-dash deliv-
ery, they went wild. His costume
consisted of a scalloped shirt, a
five-day growth of beard, and a
light weight suit he had begged
off a Britisher. “The shoulders of
that suit,” he says, “weren’t built
up at all. I came out shaped like
a coward.”
Hope and Company played 218
shows out of doors, and 47 shows
in hospital wards, in ten weeks.
Average: four shows a day. They
played for soldiers in the field,
for wounded men in stretchers,
wheelchairs, and litters. And
there was always the personal
word, the wise crack, for the boys
in the beds.
After their final show in Al-
giers, they set out for home, via
England and Iceland, where they
stopped for lunch. The weather
was clear and crisp, but when
the CO laid eyes on Hope, he got
a peculiar gleam in his eyes. He
went into a huddle with the
weather man and then said to
Hope, “Bad flying conditions.
You’ll have to stay over for
seven hours.” In the meantime
. . . would Mr. Hope . . . er . . .?
Hope would and did. He gave
three shows in the next four
hours. Immediately after the last
show the weather man reported
that the weather had suddenly
cleared up. So home they came.
Hope’s spare moments are now
filled up with writing and tele-
phoning mothers, wives, and
sweethearts of boys he saw on his
Gulliver’s Travels. A few thou-
sand letters and phone calls are
easy for Hope. ... the man with
three full-time jobs.
