HEADQUARTERS BRIEFINGS - - By Brig. General Norris.B. Harbold One of the most important attributes of good citizenship is that of Personal Integrity. This means Honesty; honesty of word, and honesty of deed. Included within the scope of this honesty is that of property responsibility. Each of us in the service of our government participates in a public trust with respect to the property ;and. supplies, for which we are responsible. This trust is given us, not by some vague and indefinite '"they", but by the people of the United States. As individual we are also custodians of our own property. We must accept this trust in full. Every, piece of equipment, every item of supply which is lost or damaged through carelessness, or haste, means that .we are not fulfilling the responsibility given us. It also means we are adding to the taxes that we pay as individuals. The volume of property which is handled, and the value of many of the pieces of equipment should make us even more conscious of the necessity for care and accuracy. This is not someone else's job, all of us are involved; all of us are responsible for government property; in the paper work, in packing, in handling, in Supply, and in Maintenance. Property honesty is not hard to find, nor to maintain, but once lost, It is hard to regain. , . . tax-paye- rs, SSgt.
