Salute to a Gallant Guy

In honor of Veterans Day, here is a post that was in Movieland magazine in July 1943:

Salute to a Gallant Guy

Captain Clark Gable could have taken this war easy. He was beyond draft age, and even when he enlisted he was given the chance to start in as a Major. He went in as a mere boot and earned his wings. His ambition now is to be an aerial gunner and serve overseas. He is now on duty at an English base, but his personal wish is to get his personal quota–and a high one it is–of Japs. How’s for all the Gable fans making at least the first down payment, and preferably, buying a whole bond, come Fourth of July, as a tribute to a great screen lover who loves his country most of all?
