Bernie's older brother, LT. JOSEPH P. DAY JR. of the Army Medical
Corps is living with them. Joe, who is waking in the Surgeon General's
office bumped into Mary Irwin in Washington recently, ,and as
they have known each other since they were so high they exchanged a
friendly embrace, but was Joe's face red when he got to his office and
his secretary advised him in a voice coated with suspicion that he had
a nice cupid's bow of lipstick on his manly cheekll
Three cheers for PVT. MARTIN J. FINAN who, although he is overseas, remembered
to show his Mother he; remembered her on Mother's Day, Mrs.
Finan received a beautiful plant and a nice cablegram, so no wonder
that slogan "Say It With Flowers" never had a bigger meaning.
CPL. DONALD COOPER seems to be walking his way into the Air Force but
we know he'll get there eventually. Poor Don just panted in after another
30 mile hike. We can't say just where he is, he's moved so often
but every time he is transferred he arrives just in time to join the
new boys on maneuvers,
LT. JOSEPH A. BENNETT has finished four weeks at Ft, Monmouth and is
now in Philadelphia at the Signal Supply Center, Commuting home from
there isn't bad except Joe will only be there four weeks also,
Nice home town reunion for PFC. JOSEPH BAILEY. When Joe was in Denver
Colorado, a couple of weeks ago he visited JACK HOMEY and his wife.
May we say "a couple of Honeys?"
The Cornwall family are walking on air and sprouting wings these days.
Can't blame them for being proud because their only son and heir.
Clift Jr., sprouted his wings too on June 15th, SONNY C0R1WALL is
waiting to be somewhere for further training, so periiaps he'll manage
to sandwich in a few days at the old homestead en route,
Here«s news of another old pal, ROSS CUMMINS is now at O.C.S. Adjutant
General's School down at Ft, Washington, Maryland, Study, hard, Ross,
and don't forget to turn the charm on Teacher,
PVT. CARL DINGER has applied for O.C.S. but in the meantime isn't letting
much moss roll under the stones (or something like that) . Carl
says the R.O.T.C, course at Rutgers is doing well by him and his. outfit
parades so smartly they've even been mistaken for West Pointers -
and that, as you know, is going some,
PVT. WALTER ER1CKS0N of the U.S.M.C. has finished training at Parris
Island and arrived home June 19th to spend ten days. Just as well
Walt decided to spend some of the time down on the Jersey Shore because
his Father and Mother were so delighted to see him they shot the works
on coupons the first week he was home,
LT. JOHN H. GI1MQRE has his wings now and is soon to start at Gunnery
School, which sounds as though Jack would be a menace in the air any
month now.
And thank you PVT. ROBERT HAMBRIGHT, Bob says he wades through our
every word as it's the only way he.has of keeping track of his fighting
friends.
