U 'm,' ..-R ruf 1 b .'. ..x . . I v s. TO OUR CLASSMATES IN AMERICNS FIGHTING FORCES This, our Victory Annual, is dedicated to you. our classmates, who have shelved your careers for the dura- tion to do your bit toward bringing world order out of the chaos created by power-mad dictators. The student body, graduating class, and faculty of Palm Beach High School want you fighting men to know that we, collec- tively and individually, are proud of each and every one of you. Only a short while ago you were care-free boys in our midst. Some of you distinguished yourselves as scholars. There were excellent athletes among you, and many of you showed great potentialities in diversified fields. It would be insulting to mini- mize the effect on budding careers, of transplanting boys of high school age direct from the class-room to the hard and dangerous life of our fighting forces. The transi- tion is a costly one to young men on the verge of carving out their own special niche in the contemporary life of the nation. The fact that all of you voluntarily chose to sacrifice personal advancement, to shoulder arms in defense of your countrymen and the rights of all the free peoples of the world speaks volumes for your selflessness and patriotism. To you, and others like you, this graduating class and countless graduating classes to come owe a debt of lasting gratitudeg a debt that, please God, this country can and will pay you when you have accomplished your task. VVe, your classmates, give you our assurance, that when this nightmare of war is over and dictatorship totally smashed, every effort will be made by us and by the faculty of this institution, to help you resume your careersg careers that were interrupted to insure the con- tinuance of our democratic way of life, with its oppor- tunities for one and all. VVe point with pardonable pride to the following roster of fighting men given to Uncle Sam's army, navy, and marines by Palm Beach High School.
