Why, indeed, should not Harvard continue to provide leadership for the armed forces which, in the future as in the past half century, will no doubt have as great an impact on technology, history and human society as any other profession; for any student of history knows that the preservation of liberty and peace at home and abroad, the implementation of the Declaration of Independence and the Emancipation Proclamation, the liberation of Europe and Asia, the enforcement of civil rights laws...
