The beaches we took in november As a beginning to these Days the beaches we took in the March to the East. The beaches we took in the last weeks of the great push. And now we Are waiting and looking across the sea and running the ramrod through our m to and counting our Rifle clips and watching the flick of Sun on our bayonets. We Are Well. America and we Are ready. We Are waiting for the signal. The future belongs to us now and we Are waiting to meet it. In november we came to a continent with a Blue Book telling of what to do what to say How to say it. But when we hit the beaches we forgot the Blue Book and we did it our own Way said it our own Way and in our own voice and the people were read to see us and we made ourselves it Tome. We came Here with weapons that did not weigh us Down but made us t stronger with the howitzer of the Maine farm on our backs the i cod soil and the Corn stalks and the Cool Rains with the mortar of the Shenandoah Valley and he t Hells of red Oak White Pine. And Blue Rivers. We carried hand grenades of Scranton Coal my Alabama Rotton dolls and battering rams of Oregon Sequoia. Thinking of Home while we fought in the wadis Ani Dattels i it Tunisia new thoughts came to us and we remember them ribbons medals and awards teem to be holding their own along with women wine and the War As topics for bivouac Bull sessions these Days. So Here Are a few More Odds and ends on the subject. Quite a few men Are inquiring about the National defense ribbon a yellow strip of decoration with Blue White and red bars on either end. This is the ribbon sometimes referred to As the pre Pearl Harbor ribbon probably because it was established As a decoration for those men inducted into the army during peacetime Between 8ept. 8, 1939 and dec. 7, 1941. So if the Start of your array career Falls somewhere Between those two dates the National defense ribbon is another you can add to your display. Rumours of a colonial service ribbon author Zeal by tile French for american soldiers in the african Campaign and a service medal authorized by the Sultan of Morocco Are just that rumours. Some men have received decorations from the French and the sultry but these were granted in specific cases and for certain reasons. There s no Over Al Ancle to such foreign ribbons.
