SECURITY
"REMEMBER-Never discuss military,
naval or air matters in public or with any
stranger, no matter to what nationality
he or she may belong.
The enemy wants information about you,
your unit, your destination. He will do
his utmost to discover it.
Keep him in the dark. Gossip on military
subjects is highly dangerous to the
country, whereas security leads to success.
BE ON YOUR GUARD and report any
suspicious individual."
