Description
These 28 young Army and Air Force enlistees were happily "ready to go" when they began boarding and chartered bus in front of the United States Courthouse for the district recruiting headquarters in Dallas. At extreme left is the chief recruiter here, Master Sergeant Hubert O. Gardner Jr., and at the head of the double line is Sergeant First Class Chester L. Hammond with the bus driver, C. F. Skelton. Enlistments in the Army, Air Force and Navy continued above average after the post holiday rush, and Marine recruiters reported "still in business." Published in Fort Worth Star-Telegram evening edition January 3, 1951.
