Excerpt from The Man in the Ranks

To begin With, you must try to accustom yourself at once to an entirely new outlook on life. No more are you the ordinary aver age, easy-going, irresponsible young man. From now on you are a soldier of Uncle Sam, privileged to represent the United States of America in the greatest war that has ever been fought for struggling humanity, against the most formidable enemy that has ever menaced civilization. From now on you must think as a soldier. Once you have taken the oath of allegiance to the United States you hold yourself at her disposal, to follow Wherever she beckons, and to go.
