Marine FIiers Celebrate With
Anxious Father On Pacific Isle
BY Sgt. James S. Dugan
MARINE Corps Combat
Correspondent

GREEN ISLAND (Delayed)-Be-
fore the war, the amusing scene of
the expectant father nervously pac-
ing the floor was confined to the
hospital waiting room. But now you
find fathers-to-be in the South Pa
cific twice as bad off as any in the
States.
Second Lieutenant James j. Steg-
man of Salina, Kan, Marine dive
bomber pilot, received word today
that his wife, Elinor, had presented
him with baby girl on June Is.
He and his fellow pilots were very
much relieved, indeed.
Can't Understand Delay
'They told me the baby was due
on the 12th," he said, and when I
didn't get any word from home was
pretty nervous. 1 sure can't under
stand why women can't have babies
when they're supposed to. 1t would
be lot easier on us fathers"
Many members of 1t. Stegman's
squadron were as interested in the
proceedings as he was. Every day
they would come to him and ask,
Have we had it yet? Any word?"
When he replied that no word had
come through, they would walk
away muttering to themselves.
First Sleep In Weeks
When the letter arrived inform
ing him of his good fortune, Lit.
Stegman let out war whoop that
could be heard all over the strip.
The sigh of relief from his team
mates was just as audible. A cele-
bration was in order, and when it
was over the men got their first
peaceful sleep in weeks.
His wife, and new daughter,
Vicki Irene, reside in Salina, and his
mother, Mrs. Frances Stegman, lives
in Plains, Kan
