McGregor and Servicemen look through the Service File ci Harrison. SERVICE ln the years to come, Harrison will be able to point with pride and reverence to 4150 blue stars, and regretfully to 233 gold stars. The gigantic task of accurately re- cording this information has been ad- mirably accomplished by Miss Alice Mc- Gregor. The purposes of the service file pictured above are many and varied. Each ser- s M13- viceman has indicated on his card his name, service rank, citations, and service record. This record acts as a constant link between our favorite sons and their Alma Mover, These cards are also on hand for reference to aid them in later life. Thus, it provides a method of communication be- tween them and their friends who are still attending Harrison.
