Schorzman of the 4135th AAF base unit at Hill field, was awarded the soldiers' - medal for heroism displayed during the period from August 24 to August 26, 1944. The citation read, 'For heroism at great risk of life during the period from August 24 to August 26, 1944. For volunteering to evacuate wounded American flyers who had been interned in an enemy prison hospital in Rumania, this gallant man during an intense and heavy bombardment and strafing attack lasting continuously for over 48 hours, carried wounded persond nel to shelters and also carried medical supplies, bedding, food and clothing from blasted and burning buildings in order to insure the comfort and safety of the patients. Regardless of incessant sniDine. strafing and bombing, these men with complete disregard for their own safety, were instrumental in saving the lives of countless American and allied wounded personnel. By their superb courage, valor and aevotion to duty, these men have upheld the highest traditions of the military service, thereby re- iiecting great credit upon themselves and the armed forces of the United States of America."

These soldiers and their fellow merited this out 2,277 recognition by turning acaircraft engines for front-lin- e tion during one month, an achievement which, according to Gen. Berman, "smashed every existing record for engine repair for the third successive month." At this huge repair and modifi cation depot, these three soldiers work on the vast ing assembly line.

No' war ever before has been waged with such fury or on such a vast scale. Better weapons, preponderance in fire power, an overwhelming superiority in the tools of war . . these have been the key to keeping bur casualties so much lower than our enemies. To a remarkable extent we have been able to exchange equipment for lives which is another way of saying that our war bond money is bringing husbands, sons and fathers safely back to, us because we are supplying the funds to provide the finest and most abundant military equipment in the world. While these considerations are paramount, enalso demands that we buy war lightened bonds to the very limit of our ability. There is no better investment in the world today. Particularly is this true, with respect to the "E" bonds, with their special jes and features designed for the small individ shio. the right to name a ual investor. Joint-ownbeneficiary, guaranteed values, rights of conversion to cash within 60 days, and if held to maturity the highest rate of return available on any government security, all these are a few of the reasons why the intelligent American, looking ahead and planning for his to own future, will again contribute the Seventh War Bond campaign. A weekly savings of $12.50 invested in this type of bond means that at the end of one year you have a nest-eg- g of $650; at the end of five years this has grown to the surprising total of $3,348.95. There is no better way to protect your future and the future of your country. There is no better, way to protect the lives of our fighting men overseas.' It is an investment, sound in common sense and assuring the" greatest advantage to us, individually and collectively. cam--pai- . Masses ... 8 a.m. and 12 noon Jewish Each Friday Evening 8:00 pan.
