![["The document is from Mrs. Ruth L. Day to Representative George B. Schwabe, expressing concern over the Army's policy of sending 18-year-old boys into combat with only 13 to 17 weeks of training. Mrs. Day argues that this is inadequate and unjust, and calls for longer and more comprehensive training for young soldiers before they are sent to the battlefield. She also criticizes war officials who dismiss mothers' concerns as hysterical. Representative Schwabe acknowledges Mrs. Day's concerns and agrees to continue opposing the current policy."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0000-Selective%20Service,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Opposition to Sending Undertrained Soldiers to Combat: A Mother's Plea")
