BUDDIES' CARES

One of the marines who drives me
around in a jeep whenever I have
to go anywhere is Pfc. Buzz Vitere
of the Bronx, New York.
Buzz has other accomplishments
besides jeep driving. He is known
as the Bling Crosby of the marines.
If you shut your eyes and don't
listen very hard you can hardly
tell the difference.
I first met Buzz on the transport
coming up to Okinawa. He and a
friend would give an impromptu
and homegrown, concert on deck
every afternoon.
They would sit ON a hatch in the
warm tropical sun and pretty soon
there would be scores of marines
and sailors packed around them,
listening in appreciative silence 1t
made the trip to war almost like
a Caribbean luxury cruise.
