Negro Soldiers Keep
Bomb Bays Loaded

SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND
America can well be proud OF
the Negro troops in this country.
Treading as lightly as angels,
they handle heavy bomb loads
and sometimes work 4S hours out
of AS, without a complaint.
They belong to the combat sup
port wing, and every time the
bomb bay doors of a Fortress
yawn open over Berlin, a large
share of the credit must go TO
these Negro troops who fought
fog, rain and icy roads to deliver
the b b to operational air
fields. They do a dangerous job
and they do it well.
These Negro troops, although
they have been only a year In

PETE"

Can you remember, as a boy.
The dog that was your pride and
joy?
Faithful companion, tried and true.
The dearest friend you ever knew.
II
I'll bet he slept on the foot of
your bed,
And you loved every hair of his
noble old head,
Life for both was light and gay,
Then came the day he passed AWAY.
III
Your first great loss,N DOM you
Life suddenly seemed as bleak as
December,
But your dog died a natural death,
With loving care you laid him to
rest.
It's different now in this day and
age,
Shooting dogs is quite the rage,
II a dog follows a boy down the
street,
A splendid target, soon cold meat.
"
It sure must take lot of CUTS,
For the Police Force to kill boys
NUTS.
Let's stop this sudden urge TO kill
Who Is mans best friend? The
dog Is still.
