shipped to the state fire marshall in
Austin for investigation. “They will

As an Advanced ROTC student, you are eligible
to apply for USAA insurance—for your car,
personal possessions, and personal liability. USAA
is an association of officers serving fellow officers
with the lowest possible premiums, quick and fair
claims settlements, and a sharing of dividends.
(Though not guaranteed, USAA has been paying
dividends every year since 1924.) You may save
as much as $20 to $60, depending on where you
live, on auto insurance alone.
And a special USAA feature, the Household
Goods Policy, is available to insure your personal
property at home, at school, or in your car, for
only $ 10 per year per $ 1,000 of insurance
protection. Small wonder more officers insure with
USAA than all other insurance companies
combined. Mail the coupon for details—at no
obligation.
