Quote

What did you do today ... for Freedom?
Today, at the front, he died... Today, what did you do?
Next time you see a list of dead and wounded, ask youself:
"What have I done today for freedom?
What can I do tomorrow that will save the lives of men like this and help them win the war?"

fine print
To help you to do your share, the Government has organized the Citizens Serice Corps as a part of local Defense Counsel's.
with some war task or responsibility for every man, woman and child. Probabl such a Corps is already at work in your community.
If not. help to start one. A free booklet available through your local Defense Council will tell you what to do and how to
do it. Go into action today, and get the satisfaction of doing a needed war job well!
EVERY CIVILIAN A FIGHTER

Obama is trying to start these back up, however it will not be your choice to help out or not.

I say we start one for the PEOPLE, not the GOVERNMENT!!
