Fights His Way
Back Into Army

The fistic urge of a Walter
Ahles, st. Clair, Mich. soldier,
reputedly absent with u t
leave for the past six months,
led to his undOing in War
rem township Thursday night.
Officers said that Ahles be-
came involved in a fight with
another man in a Van Dyke
restaurant. Inquiries by po-
lice revealed his questionable
military status. He has been
turned over to army authOri-
ties at Fort Wayne.

Maybe most of you don't know we
have an inventor, musician, and a
real composer who has composed
many swing tunes and has a pub
lished song on the market. He halls
from Louisville, KY, at Presbyte-
rian center where all kinds OF musi-
clans roam. Not keeping you in
suspense any longer, this man is
none other than Pfc. Jaytee South
erling, better known as the Boogie
Woogie Bugle Boy of Co. "B." For
the past nine months there has
been no one to wake him up to
blow his calls, and he has never
been late according to his time. He
can wake up any time of the night
and start the company to rolling.
This was proven on maneuverS.
AS a civilian, he was Scoutnas-
ter, air raid warden. auxiliary po-
liceman and also taught school at
NicholSville, KY, where he was
graduated from the Young Peoples
Conference School He is an own
er of any number of copyrights,
presented to him from the Library

since he has been in the Army he
has been working on wartime in

A note to the WACs of the 1922
Sou. You were cordially invited to
the battalion anniversary celebra-
ton two weeks ago, but it seems as
though few were misled. 1t has
always been our policy to invite the
WACs of this post to any social af-
fair We might be giving, and the
same precedence was kept at that
particular affair. We do hope that
those little silly misunderstanding
have been erased and a flag of truce
waved.
Attention, Sgt. Kelly Christian:
We all realize that freedom of the
press still exists, but that is no ex-
cuSe for your invasions of Hq Co.

A 48-hour problem in conjunction
with the 758th Tank Battalion and
other units of the END Division cli-
NAKED "A" Company's week of ac-
tiyity. 1t seemed like old times,
training with the Tankers, and the
fellows are more than happy that
they are having mounted problems
again. AS yet no arrangements have
been made to fire our powerful flat
trajectory weapons, but the gunners
are waiting with itchy trigger fin
gers to display their skill.
Introducing
Pvt. Johnnie Trail, the best gun
ner in any outfit, is quite AN un-
assuming young man of 49, Trail
gives no appearance of being a
deadly gunner. Before his entry
into the service Johnnie led an un-
eventful life as farmer and his
only handling of firearms was his
10 gauge shot gun and % rifle. He
took an occasional hunting jaunt
around his home town of Hickman,
by. The legend of how Trail shot
his way out of the guardhouse is al
ways told when the boys gather in
a bull session. It seems as though
Johnnie had let a prisoner escape
and would have to serve out his
time
During this time the Battalion
was taking firing test, and no gun
ner had success in hitting a certain
target at an extreme range. AS his
last resort Major Love sent for Trail
and told him if he hit the target
in three shots he would be a free
man.
Johnnie climbed calmly into the
destroyer and began tracking the
target steadily and surely. Sharply
he shouted the command to his as
SiStant gunner ready fire!
Straight as an arrow the projectile
pulmetted to its mark, and Trail
climbed out of the vehicle a free
man.
Yes, it is men like Trail with steel
nerves and a true eye that we rely
on in combat. Again We lift our
hats to top-notch gunner
