Poster showing photograph of giant artillery tractor.,Text continues: Quantico, VA.--Chug-chugging over seemingly impassable roads and negotiating steep hills under adverse conditions, the gasoline tractor used by U. S. Marines, hauls heavy artillery pieces from place to place with little effort. Perhaps you didn't know that Marines are artillerymen. Yes, indeed! They are infantrymen, too, as well as signalmen, engineers and aviators. The wide range of their usefulness makes U. S. Marine service very attractive for the red-blooded young man looking for something different.,This photo furnished by U. S. Marine Corps Recruiting Station, 122 North Seventh Street, St. Louis, MO.

Poster showing soldiers cooking in a field.,Text continues: Somewhere in U. S.--Uncle Sam's versatile sea soldiers are taught to prepare and cook their own meals while in the field. To be first to fight is also to be first to eat. U. S. Marines pride themselves on the fact that they rarely miss a meal no matter what the nature of their service. To be able to cook his own meals is part of the Marine's education in self reliance.,This photo furnished by U. S.
