Army sergeant Armijo praised for leadership amid strain
In a portrait of unit life, First Sergeant Gabriel Armijo earns admiration from Captain Jack White and soldiers for firm, fair leadership that balances discipline with care for men. A contrasting incident shows a rattlesnake near Oakland Park, Fla., drawn out by farmers with hoes and clubs, resulting in no injuries but 49 young snakes killed. The piece closes with a wartime appeal to invest in War Bonds and Stamps.
