The U.S. At War: Roosevelts at War

All four of Eleanor Roosevelt's sons are in the service of their country.

Cadaverous James Roosevelt, a captain of Marines, asked for active service at sea when Japan attacked the U.S. He was ordered to the Fleet Marine Force at San Diego, Calif. He will get his wish.

Chunky Captain Elliott Roosevelt of the Air Corps was in Texas when war came, studying navigation at Kelly Field. Last week he was ordered to join a reconnaissance squadron at Muroc, Calif.

Rangy Franklin Delano Roosevelt Jr., an ensign in the U.S. Naval Reserve, is on duty with the North Atlantic patrol. The Navy knew where he was last week, but his mother did not.

Tall, stringy John Aspinwall Roosevelt last June went into active service as an ensign in the Naval Reserve. He is now on duty with the Supply Corps at San Diego.

To the Senate last week their Commander in Chief sent a recommendation that their distant cousin, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, son of the 26th President of the United States, be raised to the rank of Brigadier General.
