Schwabe to a group of ex-GI's from Tulsa, Oklahoma, expressing his support for the Terminal Leave Bill for enlisted men. He reassures them that he signed a discharge petition to force the bill out for consideration and that he will support it. Schwabe also criticizes the discrimination between commissioned officers and enlisted men, stating that such distinctions create a caste system in the Armed Services, which he is strictly opposed to.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
