Learn a trade and live a strong healthy life? If so enlist and be happy - you can't beat this." It was also a way to gain things you maybe didn't have at home. "You get food, clothing, living quarters, medical atention, dental atention, baseball, football, and movie theaters all for free!" The war was an opportunity for young men.
