DEEDS DONE

The slogan.
"The Army builds Men" is justified.
When our nation's head decided on a policy of economy-the Army furnished the solution. It gave a general officer to the job-the deed is done.
The nation cast about for a scheme of economy and a soldier solved the problem-General Dawes inaugurated the budget plan and General Lord saw the deed done.
When the affairs of the Veterans' Bureau were said to be in bad shape and wasteful extravagance called for immediate action and results-the Army furnished the solution.
General Hines was placed at the helm and steered the Bureau thru the tumultuous waters bringing order out of chaos.
When an amendment to the Constitution was tottering and its enforcement presented a national problem, the Army furnished the solution.
General Andrews, a man with a proven reputation was chosen. The nation knew that if regulations can be enforced, his type of man would be the logical man to be given the chance.
When the war was over and the nation was gasping for breath to return to normal conditions many of the activities were run at a loss, The Inland Waterways Corporation, a government enterprise was steadily losing money without the seeming hope of a recovery.
General Ashburn was appointed to fill the breach.
The Army furnished the correct solution.
Within a few months the Corporation showed a balance on the profit side of the ledger.
Soon the profits exceeded the losses by $150,000.
A large European nation tried to build the Panama Canal and failed.
The United States bought the privilege of attempting what some said was impossible. Again the Army furnished the solution.
General Goethals was placed in charge. The Army Medical Corps supplied the doctor who was to make the place livable, General Gorgas.
With such a combine the nation rested easy.
The Panama Canal stands as a monumental achievement of the Army.
One of the world's greatest engineering achievements and a medical and sanitary triumph.
Famous writers have penned their most successful lines describing the life and training that is responsible for the building of characters and character that leaves deeds such as these for history to note.
The Army opened the West-pioneered for the railroad-opened and connected Alaska to the world by its cable and developments.
The air has been conquered by the Army and its secrets brought to earth.
The Army --.
Results?
The Army builds men.
The nation sees the deed done.
