(jg) Leonard Eiserer, USNR Associate Editor: Orville Campbell, Y2c By George J. Grewenow Chaplain Corps, USNR On the back page of this issue of the Cloud- DUSTER appears a picture of the Pre-Flight School Glee Club. The glee club enjoys the dis tinction of being the only official cadet organi zation of any kind at this station. Although it was originally formed in the First Battalion in a rather haphazard manner, its value to both the members and to the station as a whole has been so clearly seen that the club has been officially recognized and nurtured along from battalion to battalion. Although the quality of the club as a singing organization has been uniformly high, its prime reason for existence has been not just for singing, but simply to give our cadets an opportunity to relax. Cadets who wish to join are not given voice try-outs, nor even asked if they can sing. The Glee Club has, however, appeared in many fine en tertainment programs on the station, at Uni versity functions, and has sung several times over nation-wide radio hookups. The members get together on Monday nights and sing “just for the fun of it,” and then on Friday nights they resolve themselves into two choirs. Catholic and Protestant. These choirs have contributed materially to the beauty and dignity of the Sunday morning services, and I take this opportunity to congratulate the members for their fine work, and for their con tribution to the welfare and morale of this station. Ancil Guy Morton, CKS(AA) has reported for duty at this base, coming from the NAS at Dallas, Texas. Personnel Chang^es Five more officers were detached from this station during the past week.

On the Lighter Side ... Ferry Pilot’s Toast Give me a TBF for comfort An F4F for thrills An F4U for cross-country A Brewster for Hospital Bills— A J4F for per diem An F6F for a show I’d rather be a Ferry Pilot Than anything else I know. —Quonset Scout. A Navy Flier’s Creed I am a United States Navy flier. My countrymen built the best air plane in the world and entrusted it to me. They trained me to fly it. I will use it to the absolute limit of my power. With my fellow pilots, air crews and deck crew, my plane and I will do any thing necessary to carry out our tre mendous responsibilities. I will always remember we are part of an unbeatable combat team—the United States Navy. When the going is fast and rough, I will not falter. I will be uncompromis ing in every blow I strike. I will be humble in victory. I am a United States Navy flier. I have dedicated myself to my country, with its many millions of all races, col ors and creeds. They and their way of life are worthy of my greatest pro tective effort. I ask the help of God in making that effort great enough.
