' MAKING TIME THRUUGH TRAVEL Modern Army Green is recognized the world over, and travel opportunities in the modern Army provide a valuable education in themselves. Assignments in various parts of the United States enable a soldier to understand his American heritage. But, beyond that, most soldiers have the chance for an overseas assignment. These foreign tours not only provide the fun and thrills of adventure in exciting foreign lands . . . but in traveling and observing different ways of life a soldier will find new meaning in his own. .,.!F,g..t

ti MAKING TIME ll.. X. rnutfw 'Z .42 ,I THII UGH EIIUIIIITIIIN In addition to job training, the modern Army otlers each man the opportunity to pursue his formal education. The United States Armed Forces Institute conducts the largest correspondence school in the World and has helped thousands upon thousands ot' soldiers to get their high school diplomas. The Army has also arranged with many civilian schools and colleges to permit soldiers to attend courses in their off-duty hours. Under the Tuition Assistance Program, an ambitious soldier can get a college degree. What's more, there are Education Centers in hundreds of Army posts which daily teach subjects the soldiers themselves have asked for. The modern Army has found that the greater an education a soldier has, the greater contribution he makes to the Army itself. This is why the man in Modern Army Green is urged to carry his education forward as far as possible.

The spiritual and moral growth of its men is of the utmost importance to the Army. The opportunity for a soldier to worship in his own religious faith is a fundamental part of Army life. THHUUGH it cnnnncrrn nsvfmvmfm All 134i Besides the active programs conducted by Protestant, Catholic and Jewish chaplains, each stands ready to counsel any soldier on his religious or personal problems. Army discipline has its basis in self-control, self-respect, self- reliance, honor and honesty. This discipline creates clean-minded, clean-living soldiers who are aware of the responsibilities of good citizenship. The man in Modern Army Green is a credit to his country.
