Shai Hills, (Eastern Region) Nov. 7 A top military officer today warned that the armed forces is not rpt not a place to make money. ''Service in the armed forces is not a money making venture but a call for sacrifice,'' Brigadier Humphrey Kwaku Agbevey, Commander of the Support Services Brigade, said. The Brigade Commander was addressing a passing- out parade of 56 recruits from the Army recruit training school at Shai Hills. ''It is true that you might have different motives for joining the army but whatever your reasons are, the idea of making money in the armed forces should not have a place in your mind.'' Brigadier Agbevey reminded the soldiers that the national purpose that provides the basic justification for the army's existence is set forth in the constitution. ''We are charged with providing for the nation's common defence,'' he added. The Brigade Commander advised them to stay clear of corruptive tendencies by learning to live within their means ''while maintaining societal standards as demanded by this noble profession''. Brig Agbevey congratulated the recruits on their achievement but warned that their passing-out ''is only one giant step'' in their chosen profession. ''You must always strive to grasp the rudiments of your profession and to lay a firm foundation for your chosen career. ''You require a sound knowledge of your profession and also the customs and traditions of your service.'' The recruits studied physical training, drill, weapon training, map reading, first aid, minor tactics, fieldcraft, military history and law, and ethics of the army during their 27-week training. Recruit Moro Welle, who was adjudged the overall best recruit, took two other awards as best in academic and weapon training. The award for the best in physical training went to recruit Sefianu Sulemanu while recruit sergeant major Alidu Alhassan took the best in drill award. Recruit Ebenezer Baakye took the award for best recruit in minor tactics.
