Bradley Does it Again!
GIs and Civvies Join Forces,
Invest Over $177,000 in Bonds

Bradley did it again!
During the Seventh War Loan, which closed July first, soldiers and civilians of this Base invested a total of $177,418.57 in Bonds. And as the best financiers will tell you—that's wise investing.
A breakdown of the total figure shows that civilians invested $93,514.82 while military personnel bought $83,903.75 worth of the valuable certificates that will pay off at a future date.
Total cash purchases by GIs amounted to $47,896.25 while Class B allotments were made to the tune of $35,007.50.
Of the over $93,500 subscribed by Civilians, cash purchases amounted to $30,893.76 and Class A payroll deductions to $63,582.28.
Civilian purchasers were allowed an extra week of grace to buy Bonds for cash between July first and seventh and went to town in that period by buying $8,756.35 worth.
Of the twenty-five civilian departments at the Base, twenty-one surpassed their quotas with the Purchasing and Contracting leading the field by oversubscribing with $1218.30; Post Engineers in second place with $1700.30 and General Supply by $1063.96.
A special nod is extended toward the Post Exchange employees who made a terrific spurt in their purchases during the last week of the Drive.
