That Extra Something!

That Extra Something! ...You can spot it every time. When war correspondents say that Coca-Cola is the drink of our fighting men, you know there is a reason for it. What drink offers such a delicious taste and downright refreshment? One tells how a Ranger, returned from Dieppe, asked for Coca-Cola in preference to anything. Another cables that the main event of the week for the doughboys at a desolate South Pacific: outpost was 12 bottles of Coke. We read such things in the papers regularly. Coca-Cola had to be good to earn fast friendship like that with our Armed Forces. Coca-Cola is good. It's made that way with a finished art and choicest ingredients. And with a taste all its own. Truly, the only thing like Coca-Cola is Coca-Cola, itself.

That Extra Something!

That Extra Something! ...You can spot it eveery time. Word comes back again and again from those who have been at far-flung fronts that next to wives, sweethearts and letters from home among the things our fighting men mention most is Coca-Cola... Coke. Is it hard to realize how this famous soft drink could mean so much to so many? Remembrance of its taste and refreshment sailed with them. Ice-cold Coca-Cola was their associate on bright, happy occasions. Part of their growing up... a pleasant thing to remember and look forward to. A reminder of home ways. Even so far away from home, each time they enjoy it, they realise that the only thing like Coca-Cola is Coca-Cola, itself.
