Major John Eisenhower, the son of Ike Eisenhower, leaves for Korea to serve in the United States Army during the Korean War. John Eisenhower kissing his mother, Mamie. Mamie Eisenhower and a grandparent, probably his grandmother Elivera Doud, wave goodbye. Eisenhower speaks while seated at a table, saying, "A soldier learns as a nation must learn that integrity backed by strength is the only sure way to lasting peace. Our country's destiny, to my mind, is to serve mankind through leadership in the arts of peace. If we believe in our own system, if we allow no taint of false doctrine to confuse it, if we practice what we preach, if we provide upright leadership, we can help to show the world the folly of war. With all the strength I can command and the devotion I hold for my country, I pledge myself to this objective."
