By Dry Martini

If ever am alert was pulled on a Saturday
night, there weuld be a mad stampede from
\ the “Immortal Portals” of Durham, Calif-
ornia, better kmown as ‘Stripping of the
Guernsey cow’. :

Sad Sack of oe is none other than
Cpl Johnnie Malavasi, whose bleeding heart
cries for a certain senorita. “Pray for rain
Johnnie.” Maybe we’ll return to Victorville.

Last week we wished Cpl. Stanley Brush
a@ speedy recovery — — This week Pm wishing
I were there with him, OOH LA LA, “What
a Nurse”, Stam! Stop playing sick, Dechenne
wants his furolugh.

Sweating out time is Sgt Ed DeBauche,
furlough bound. Lucky you. Yours truly is
sweating out a three day pass. A pleasant

trip, Ed, and here’s Se you a happy |

leave.

and trigger guard for Sgt Ralph Paulson to

that'll make.

By hook or crook, we'll get some good
gossip about the Squadrn Editor to place in
this weeks issue. Even if it did take a day
of K.P. to get him away from this manu-—
seript long enough to doctor it up a bit.
Don’t let him kid you guys about those
Saturday nights at Durham. Just up and ask
him how he should know about all this.
