Bombers, block-busters, torpedoes, tanks, guns, grenades, machine-guns are not the only
weapons the leaders of our Armed Forces use to win victory. They use-men-men who speak
different languages, who can question prisoners, get information from natives, read enemy
papers, diaries and documents, interpret in negotiations, understand enemy propaganda
and do a thousand vital services to insure victory.
