CAMP SUTTON
Volume i
FEBRUARY, 5. 1944
NUMBER 1
GEN. MILLER GREETS
COMMAND
Brigadier General Lehman W. Miller, commandant of the Camp Sutton
post, today issued his first message of greeting to the personnel of his
command.
Making use of the Camp's new newspaper, Gen. Miller said:
Greetings to the enlisted men and women and to the officers of Camp
Sutton!
For your cooperation during the first month of my command here I am
sincerely grateful. We are serving in the Army for the sole purpose of
defeating cruel and ruthless enemies. In its distress our country needs the
maximum efforts- of each of us. Personal desires and preferences must be
subordinated to the best interests of the Army and the Nation. We can
serve best by performing faithfully our daily duties whether they be
fatigue or training.
Keep your morale high in spite of difficulties, discouragements, and dis¬
comfort. Take pride in the uniform you wear — there is none better in the
world. Make your unit the best in the Army. By so doing, you will not only
establish a record of service of which you will be proud but you will hasten
that event for which we are all striving — Victory!
As the first issue of the Camp
Sutton newspaper comes off the
press, it still needs a good name
and is hoping the officers and men
of the post can do something about
it.
The paper is published by the
camp’s military personnel, and it
is only fair that they should have
a hand in naming it. To stimulate
a flow of ideas, the staff is offering
a prize to the enlisted man o.-
officer who selects the most appro¬
priate title.
Send entries to Camp Newspaper.
Morale Services Division, Camp
Sutton. Be sure to include your
name and organization.
Also, the paper wants to present
as good a picture as it can of the
daily doings and incidents of camp
life and of the personalities here.
So it asks anybody who has any
items of interest around camp to
send them to the newspaper office.
Unit reporters are covering their
organizations, but they can’t reach
everybody. If you don’t feel you can
write items yourself, tell the paper
about them anyway. It’ll be appre¬
ciated.
In time it is hoped to start a
Letters-to-the-Editor Department,
and the paper wants all the com¬
ments it can get on what the peri¬
odical’s readers think of it. If the
remarks, favorable or otherwise,
merit it, they will be published.
But written material isn’t all.
The paper is also anxious for good
cartoons and photos.
So how about plenty of written,
drawn and photographed stuff. The
paper wants it and will give you
credit for published material.
