GO FAR EAST, YOUNG MAN

Among of the famous, battle-tested divisions now stationed in Japan and Korea are now accepting the enlistments of hand-picked, keen young men for service in the Far East. Among these great fighting divisions are such noted units as the First Cavalry Division, now patrolling in Japan; the 7th Infantry Division, on duty in Korea; the 7th Infantry Division, now in Korea; the 24th Infantry Division, known as the "Victory Division," serving in Japan; and the 25th Infantry, or "Tropic Lightning Division," duty in the Osaka, Japan. A 3-year enlistment for duty in the Orient will enable you to choose one of these famous divisions—and you can have your choice of initial training in the United States. A 20 per cent increase in pay for overseas service, plus many additional advantages, makes this a real opportunity for young men who want to see distant lands and fill an important part in the peacetime Army.
