Eisenhower sitting at desk w/ microphone in

taken over the duties of the Chief of Staff of the Army from a great
predecessor... ...I have taken up
this duty at a critical time in the affairs of the nation and the Army. ...we are now engaged in tearing down that Army at an unprecedented rate. At the same time we have commitments in foreign lands, commitments which
require military strength. Those
commitments were made in good faith to help solidify the peace that has been so
dearly won. Very soon those two
processes will clash. This is your
army and it is your decision as to which course we shall follow. The decision once made, it is the duty
of the War Department to carry it out. For my part I hope that we secure that peace.”
