Every day armies of servicemen move in a never-end-
ing line throughout the Gulf South. At nearly every
stop, at railroad stations and hits terminals, these men
in uniform are met by friendly volunteer workers who
are ready to serve coffee and doughnuts, to answer
questions, mail letters, and to help in the thousand
and one other ways that mean so much to a soldier
away from home.
In the small hours of morning or after a hard day of
house work these volunteers give unselfishly of their
time. They feel that any sacrifice of theirs is small if
it makes life a little easier for thousands of sons, hus-
bands and friends who are giving up the comforts of
home to fight for Victory.
We recognize the valuable service rendered to our
fighting men by the Red Cross and other organiza-
tions . . . appreciate the helping hand that America’s
volunteer workers daily extend to the more than 800
United men in uniform.
Production and transmission of nalurul gas and oil
are essential to winning the war—Victory is our
No. 1 job.
