Some of our boys were relaxing
one night last week after a hard
days workout in the desert. The
Arizona wasteland was forgotten,
and talk Veered around to such eS-
sential subjects as girls. postwar
plans, etc. Everyone in this little
group was feeling very peaceful and
relaxed while listening to Pfc. VAL
entine tell of his most recent con-
quest. Then She" Valentine was
then she-ing when suddenly he no
ticed S/Sgt. Burrell staring past
him, a horror stricken look on his
honest countenance. At the same
time, Valentine felt gusts of alter
nately soaring and freezing winds
blowing down his neck Forcing
himself to turn around, he beheld
a huge monster-l lizard over ten feet
tall reared up on his hind legs and
slathering at the mouth in antici-
patton of CT meal
Valentine freely admits that his
first thought was to attempt to eS-
cape. (Confidentially, what would
you have done, partner?) Then, re-
membering his military training, he
bravely decided to face the crisis.
Rallying his comrades about him,
he took the offensive. But the gar
gantuan lizard was not to be easily
cheated of his repast, and it re-
quired the combined operations of
all the motor usherlongs to prevent
occasion for sending several of those
little "The War Department re-

time from his furlough? Or are we
being nebby?
Glad to see Rose back from the
hospital. Fowler beat the cleaning
rap by going on furlough, but he'll
he back soon and Rose says he "ain't
in no shape"
Another mystery has entered the
evening "bull sessions" in the bar
racks. Why did Joe King postpone
his furlough fifteen more days? Can it
be that ne is that much i'm distrust of
his creditors, to have to arrange his
furlough so conveniently AFTER pay
day? Now is that a. "Buddie"?
I'd like to tell you about our Per-
sonnel Sergeant, Francis A. Sykes,
of Chicago,N Ill. Sgt. Sykes attended
Northwestern University shortly be-
fore entering the service in 1911 He
can boast of having held his present
rank for more than two of his three
Years in the Army. At school he was
an all around athlete and has proved
an efficient non-com. y former mem
Der of the S2Sth Tank Destroyer Bat
talon, T/Sgt. Sykes also served with
the 1S4th Field Artillery, of Illinois
fame. He is often referred to by the
boys as Army Regulation Happy, be-
cause of his ability to quote almost
any regulation, n u d i n recent
changes, that have any bearing on
