If you are a bookkeeper in civilian life, you're probably convinced that the Army will have you cutting meat in the commissary. Good Jobs Provided . Probably no draftee in history ever got a job in the service that he thought suited him. But this time the Army will really try to put you where you belong. They've been working on a special classification of jobs for a couple of years, now, and have the thing worked out pretty well, they think. Now about the hours you're going to put in in uniform. ¥ou work 40 hours a week in the job you have now? That's what you'll get in the Army. You'll always get Sunday off and either Saturday or Wednesday afternoon off, At the end of your basic training, you'll get a few days to go home and tell your folks all about it.
