Cincinnati Goes to War: "We Can Do It!"

Okay, you've decided to take your chances, stay home and get a War job. There are several ways you can help right here at home without going overseas and risking your life. There is a good chance that you might get drafted, but you pray that doesn't happen.
        Another factor in your decision was that you think you might get a deferrment anyway, due to having diabetes since you were a kid. It has already affected your eyesight and kidneys. Most of the time you feel ok, but you must take an insulin shot daily. You've had it since you were five years old.
        Sure enough, you flunked the physical and got a deferrment. Looks like you'll serve from the homefront.
