And that they might take healthy and Able bodied men out of our armed forces we want to know Why they d do a thing like that. We Are in limited service because of our chasing. Over Here we cannot get the Chance to do this work which is really needed. We do hold anything against the army nor Are we trying to get our discharges but Why done to they let us go Back Home and do that work doing our part in the War Effort will put us on the Road to a Normal life and will release men to take Over where we had to leave off. It is wasting Money and shipping a Nace to keep us Here where w Are no longer needed and wanted. A limited service us. We Are positive of Victory and i am sure that we Are All willing to make sacrifices a til that Victory comes. But the innocent children who will see their dads come Back will be the ones who will have paid the most. Done to fight to keep fathers out of the draft. Draft them by All Means.
