The Stooge I’m the co-pilot, I sit on the right I’m not important, just part of the flight, t never talk back lest I have re grets, Sut I have to remember what the pilot forgets. I make out the flight plan and study the weather ^ull up the gear and stand by to feather; Make out the forms and do the reporting And fly the old crate when the Pilot’s acourting. I take the readings, adjust the ^ power. Handle the flaps and call the . Tower. Tell him where we are on the darkest night And do all the bookwork with out any light. I call for my pilot and buy him cok0S II always laugh at his corny jokes And once in a while when his I landings are rusty , , , I Come through with “Gawd, but its gusty!” All in all I’m a general stooge As I sit on the right with the man I call Scrooge. I guess you think that is past un- . derstanding . ^ut maybe someday he will give me a landing. —Anonymous. Little pay check, in a day, You and I will go away, To some gay and festive spot.

Forrestal has announced the reopening of WAVES recruiting on a wide scale, with 2,000 WAVES a month needed nation ally to fill current requirements. The new monthly quota will ex tend through the balance of this year, as the Navy girds for a long, severe war still ahead of us in the Pacific. The increase in the strength of the Women’s Reserve of the Navy, it was pointed out, is made necessary because the ac celeration of the war in the Pa cific has depleted the numbers of personnel at shore stations in this country at the time when demands on most of these sta tions are the heaviest of the war. More than 82,000 WAVES are now on active duty, and the out standing performance and serv ice rendered by them has made it possible for the Navy to re lease more than 65,000 men for duty afloat and ashore overseas. Needed for Hospital Corps Approximately one half of the women selected for the WAVES under the new procurement quota will be chosen for the Hospital Corps. At present, some 13,000 WAVES are now giving splendid service in this branch, along with nearly 120,000 male Hospital Corpsmen, but the need for thousands more to care for the current and future casualties returning to Naval Hospitals in this country from the battle- fronts is most pressing. Naval personnel have been asked to assist recruiting agen cies with this important procure ment program in several ways. First, by informing relatives and friends that WAVES recruiting definitely is “in business” again. Second, by pointing out that many more WAVES are needed because thousands of men are being transferred from shore stations to the Pacific and be cause of the increasing need for more personnel in the very vital Hospital Corps. And third, by either urging eligible young women to volunteer for duty in the Navy’s WAVES or by for warding their names to a re cruiting agency. Qualifications for women who volunteer to enter the WAVES are the same as heretofore. They must be from 20 to 36 years of age, have two years of high school or the equivalent, have no children under 18 years of age, and be an American citizen. Complete information may be obtained from Officer of Naval Officer Procurement or Navy Re cruiting Stations. Former Cadet Wins DFC Lt. (jg) Frank T. Long, 16th Battalion cadet from Red Bank, N. J., has been awarded the Dis tinguished Flying Cross as pilot in a torpedo squadron aboard a carrier.
