![["The document consists of three letters written by Mrs. Henley Annett and Oleta Annett to Honorable George W. Schwabe in Washington, D.C., expressing their concerns about the unfair demobilization plans for soldiers returning from overseas. They highlight the slow and unfair process of discharging soldiers, especially those with physical disabilities who have already served overseas. They question the efficiency of the demobilization process and suggest that politics may be influencing the decisions being made. They urge for fair treatment of all soldiers, regardless of their points or age, and express frustration that the focus seems to be on soldiers in the States rather than those who have already served overseas. They request for prompt action to address these issues."]](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_55_0000-Servicemen,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_55_0008_thumbnail.jpg "Unfair Demobilization: A Call for Change")
