Here is a story that bears re
peating. It didn't happen in our
reciment. In fact it is told of
our enemies, the REDS, but it is one
of the best stories which has come
to my attention circulating around
campfires. A private of the Red
army,' instructed to capture any
prisoners dressed in blue denims
(which is the BLUE army uni
form) brought a protesting pris
oner into his cam d to his comDanv
commander. It was all right ex

The other night during one of
our black-out marches, the air was
filled with fireflies. This was one
light which the army couldn't shut
out. As one firefly might have said
another, "When you've gotta glow,
you gotta glow."

Umpires, whether at baseball

a bad time of it. The other day
a group of 30th Division soldiers
had jusst fed and were sitting
around beginning their meal when
the umpire spread out flags to in

that section. The boys took on

ants had ruined most of the food.
The rest of this little incident is
censored.
I'm finishing this on Saturday
night. The maneuver is over now
and we are getting ready to leave
nextx Tuesday morning for Jack
son; We bivouac the firsst night
at Chattanooga and the second
night at Athens, Georgia, as we
did coming up here, arriving at
Fort Jackson by 2:15 Thursday
afternoon.- The present schedule
calls for our being paid immediate
ly and allowed to go home for the
week-end, a three-day pass. This
of course will be for everyone who
can possibly be spared from Fort
Jackson. I imagine 75 per cent
of the entire personnel will get to
go home, and since I hope to be
among that lucky 75 per cent, good
bye until next week.
