Will you give a pint of blood in memory of Ernie Pyle?
The Red Cross blood bank is running behind its quota. Good news has sharply decreased blood donations.
And this at a time when casualties are heavy – both in the European and Pacific theaters?
Many folks have called The Press, suggesting some sort of memorial for Ernie Pyle.
Ernie doesn’t need a memorial. But if one could be dedicated to him, what could be finer than the life of some G.I. Joe – saved from death by a pint of your blood?
Therefore, next week will be Ernie Pyle Week at the Red Cross blood bank. Will you give a pint to save some wounded Yank? Remember, Ernie gave his life.
Won’t you call Grant 1680 and make an appointment to give a pint of blood – just a little tribute to Ernie Pyle?
