McGARRY AND THE Top KICK
BY MATT TAYLOR
MmrAsd ~ ArkwS SrMH

The old-timer squints at Dan. An Mp,
eh? Well, you've got job for yourself"
Kitty sighs. Uncle Aloysius is about to
go AWOL," she explains.
'In ten minutes will be AWOL." says
the top-kick uncle. wagging his head like he is
proud of the fact Sit down, soldier. and have
a quick one before you take me IN"
DAN gapes at him. you mean you want
to be arrested?"
why. you pigeon-brained, monkey-faced
son Of braying jackassg" says Uncle Alloy
sius. You lily-livered -"
'Uncle!' says Kitty. Dan is my fancep'
Cant he understand English? OF course I
want to be arrested" barks Uncle Aloysius.
Il can't talk him out of it, Dan." says
Kitty. I've tried for hours
Uncle Aloysius twists up his rlbbery face
like guy tasting his first olive, which is
his natural way Of grinning. No one can talk
me out of il" he says happily. 'I1l tell you
how got it figured, soldier. It amt perfect.
but it's the best can think Of"
Evening star., 1944-05-28

portant that you come over to meet him."
Il meet lot of black sheep being an Mp"
replies Dan, ''but never do meet one named
Aloysius. I'll come when can"
It's four O'Clock when he punches Ktty's
doorbell. She leads him inside and he finds
himself staring at the toughest-looking staff
sergeant in the IS. Army. His hair is silver,
his face red, and his hands, now holding
glass and bottle, are brown; also so big he
can hold CT helmet like it is cup of tea.
His face is mostly jaw, and his eyes are sub
zero blue. World War chevrons, wound and
service, are on his sleeves, and enough ribbons
on his chest to date him back to Gettysburg;
but the CLINT in his eye says there's lot of
top kick left in him yet.
s'IMs is my uncle" Kitty says to Dan.
Hes been IN the Army forty years."
THE name is Aoysius. soldier" says the
top kick. 'tWant to make anything of it?"
why, Sarge" replies Dan in hurry. If
ever have kid will tag him Aloysius.
which I consider fine handle for any guy"
Evening star., 1944-05-28

"I'm AWOL," the sergeant
told Dan. care you going
to do anything about it?"
THI1s mouse, Kitty, Dan McGaTy's one
and only, is good soldier sweetheart
and is usually content if Dan drops in on her
at odd hours when the Army's not using him.
So it's big surprise when she phones him
at the armory where the MP's are billeted
and says, in high excited voice, Can you
come right over? My Uncle Aloysius is here. ;"
Dan sighs "Chickens maybe I'm not do
ing much to win the war, just prowling around
town checking up on the soldiers at play.
But it's my job. and I'm going to do it. will
be on duty for the next four hours. Who is
this uncle Aloysius? never hear you speak
of him."
That's because l haven't seen him IN
years." says Kitty. He's sort of black
sheep in my mothers family. and now he
drops in Unexpectedly. and it's awfully i'm
Evening star., 1944-05-28

So he starts m talking, and although II
il very hard for an old-time top kick to talk
in mixed company, Dan finally gets what he
is driving at. It seems although his old outfit
il long since overseas, Uncle Aloysius doe
not % along because some medical brass hats
decide he's too old For two years now he does
nothing but sit behind desk at the Army
induction center.
s'The only way will get wound stripe
out Of this war" he says, lis to tip the tele-
phone off the desk onto my big toe But that
is not The saddest part. Now they give me
another physical; this new medico says my
ticker amt right and they are going to muster
me out. Muster me out - with war going
onl Why, If my ticker is bad, I'd drop dead
when they talk such nonsense!"
DAN shakes his head in sympathy. But
about this AWOL business? ! don't see
how -
4I'm coming to that. I'm supposed to get
my discharge papers any day now. But maybe
before get them will be in the guardhouse
for going AWOL - and who ever heard Of
guy getting mustered out Of the guardhouse7
Even if this doc is right. which Of course he
amt, thirty days Of quiet in the clink viii
be just what my ticker needs. I'll ask for an
other physical. and they'll then realize I'm
still in the prime of life. So swizzle what's
left Of your drink, soldier, and well get going.
The last time was arrested was in Brest,
France, in 1918, and it took four Of you
MPs to do it"
Dan takes look at Kitty and sees she Is
all upset and shaking her head at him. So
he says, Il hate to arrest an old-timer like
you. Sarge Maybe if "
''Will yod take me along quietly - or do
/ have to get rough?" roars Uncle Aloysius.
Dan backs up couple of steps. He looks
at Kitty again and shrugs and she shrugs
back at him. If you want it that way. 7" he
says sadly, you are under arrest"
That's better" says Uncle Aloysius
.'Good-by, Kitty, me gal. It'll be a long time
yet before you see me going around mas
querading as damned civilian"
Our in the street Uncle Aloysius huns hap
PLY while he strolls beside Dan. But pretty
soon it wears off and he shakes his head
sadly. I'm only kidding myself" he says.
Maybe can get to stay in the Army, but
can't get where belong, which is overseas
with my old buddies. It's tough break.
He screws up his rubbery face and for
minute Dan is afraid he is going to be the
only man living to see an old-time top kick
break down and cry. But Uncle Aloysius gets
hold Of himself in time, and starts worrying
again. Then again, maybe won't even get
to stay in the Army" he says. This GO Of
mine is softie, and he may not give me
guardhouse. l think I'd better. clinch it.
