Township Tattle Vol. II No 2 - Millburn Public Library

little matter we hope will be rectified soon. And don't forget to come
and see us if, and when.
A hasty note has come in from CPL. ROBERT 0. L. KENT informing us of
his new and mysterious A.P.O. La, address, warning us that he can no
longer receive parcels and winding up with the cheery message that
he'll write soon and that he enjoys the Tattle no end. Well, Bob,
wield that pen our way when you can. Meanwhile, good luck.
We note with pride that it is CPL. MICHAEL PASSARELLI now, according to
his latest and very interesting letter. He's going to school-at Camp
Consair, San Diego, California, learning the innards that make those
B 24 Liberators, such a sky menace to To jo and Adolph. To get to San
Diego Cpl* Passerelli really saw a good bit of the ole U.S.A. from a
train window. The only part that saddened him a little was that -each
mile took him farther from Millburh, He hasn 1 1 met any other local
lads since he entered the service 6g- months ago either, so if any of
you boys are in that vicinity, how about making news for our "Small
World" column next issue.
We'd already written up S/SGT. JOSEPH FORMICHELLI in "Silver Lining"
when -a "V" mail letter came in at the zero hour, so we want to thank
you Joe for giving us the lowdown on all your exciting doings in the
Africa Theatre of war. Also for giving the American Red Cross such
nice compliments. We know they are doing a fine job but it's good to
hear it first hand, too. Happy raiding and keep up the good workj
CPL. ARTHUR S. MACOMBER has finally arrived at Colorado Springs, although
leaving Spokane was a wrench as he enjoyed everything about it.
This can't be so bad either though, or else Artie is a born optimist.
He's living in a tent now, but that's 0,K. because it's cooler and
pleasanter than a barrack is in the summer. Also they are only 75
miles from Denver (with an eye on future leaves) and nestled at the
foot of Pikes Peak. In fact there are lots of side "trips to take when
and if there .is the time but Art is hoping for a real furlough soon so
he can get home. After almost a year we think you rate one too.
Another friendly face we may see soon belongs to PFC. ANTHQN¥ CAIVANO
even though he is down at Camp Hulen, Texas. Tony has finished his
courses at Aberdeen, Maryland, and is back at work which gives him a
great kick. As he says, "Every time I tighten a bolt or repair a part
on one of these guns I feel we're all getting that much closer to
Freedom." His camp is on the Gulf of Mexico and at night and in the
early morning the views are beautiful. What goes on at noon, Tony?
Too busy to look?
LT. R. B. KOSTER takes time out from flying pursuit planes to tell us
he likes the Tattle. He received his April and May issues in a batch
and noticed that Steve Wilson was trying to locate him and Pierce
Cassedy, Now all we need is a word from the latter, as Steve is always,
one of our Grade A correspondents. By the- way ? Bud drops all
capitals when referring to Pierce and Pensacola as it's "the best he
can do for the Navy. Master Koster, as you can guess, is an Army man,
RUSSELL A* HERBSTSOMSR S 2/c sends all his friends best regards and
hopes to meet them all again as soon as this war is ended, Rues is
