THE GRAND SALINE SUN
Thursday, March 7,1946
You'll be
IIGH UP on the crowded deck of a hospital
ship, a homesick Yank strains his eyes for a sign of home.
On the dock below he sees a Red Cross Motor Corps
driver. At the sight of her heart-warming smile, without
even hearing her voice, he knows she’s saying:
“You’ll be okay, Soldier!"
He knows, because he’s heard inner Red Cross girls say
those same simple words of cheer. On Luzon. In the
hospital. On the dock where he took ship for home.
Aboard the hospital ship, from a sympathetic and under-
standing Red Cross worker.
He knows that they are not mere words, for he has
seen the help and the service that inspire them. He knows,
too, that he can find the same spirit of friendly, under-
standing helpfulness in his home town Red Cross chapter.
Yes, he knows that the Red Cross network of assistance
is at his side whenever he needs it, ready and able to meet
his needs.
And while this girl and her comrades throughout the
world represent the Red Cross, in reality you are the Red
Cross. She, the Red Cross worker, is still needed, and she’s
on duty today where American troops are stationed. You
who make the Red Cross possible also are still needed.
Without you there would be no Red Cross.
So let your dollars follow your heart. Give to the Red
Cross. Ci%e ail you possibly can.
