It is the Imperative Duty of EVERY Man to serve his Country at the present time, and there is some duty everyone can perform

1. Are you of Military age, physically fit, and not engaged on Government work? Then apply at once at the Kempston Barracks and join H M Regular or Territorial Forces

2. Are you of Military age, and, through medical or other legitimate reasons unable to join the Regular Forces? Then you can serve your country by joining the Bedford Volunteer Training Corps

3. Are you over Military age? Then you can serve your country by joining the Bedford Volunteer Corps

4. Are you between 16 and 19 years of age? Then you can serve your country and prepare yourself for the Army by joining the Bedford Volunteer Training Corps

Every Man can and should take his part. There is no room for Slackers in the Country during the present crisis
