Feb. 9, 1945, 1000, Fry USO:
The members of Company &C"
got together for night of fun and
frolic at the Fry USO, and believe
me, they certainly had their share
of fun. Music was furnished by the
GRIND Band under the direction of
Pvt. Charles Hortzog, formerly of
the 164th AGF Band
Tables had been set up in the
manner of a night club back in the
East, with cigarettes and peanuts
on every table.
The party was given in the honor
of 1t. Samson, who had gotten mar
ried earlier in the day. Also in the
honor of the 1st Sgt. Perkins, who
happened to have a birthday, and
very pleasing birthday it must have
been, too. And also End 1t. Burley,
who is being transferred to Com
pany 81" in the Regiment.
For the men the party was given
because of the way in which they
worked to receive such praise from
the inspecting officers of the Fourth
Army.
Sgt Perkins Witches to thank the
men for the cooperation the men
in the company have given him.
And states that he thinks his COM
pany will form a good combat team.
The show was sponsored by the
Regimental Special Service Office,
and the able NC. was the popular
Durwood Brent of that office
There were such vocalists as Pvt
Marty Cole with his rendition of
"These Foolish Things; Pvt. West
ray, with his Interpretation of I'm
Going to Move to the Outskirts of
Town; Cpl Robert White and his
Making Believe; T/Sgt. Stanley
Dotson, swoon singer, and very
good one, 1 must add, did up "Day
Dream" like master. Keep your
eyes on this man, he's going places,
and in hurry.
A Sgt. F. Mitchell of &c" Com
pany took over the door and wasn't
going to let our reporter in, but an
unknown Staff Sgt. came to his res
cue and explained that the Sgt. was
OVERRIDING his job.

Company ID"
Has Party Too

The party started at $3.50 Satur-.
day night, with the Glee Club rem
dering a few old and very favorite
songs. This was followed by speeches
made by various members of the
company and their guests. The
guests included: Col BarrowS, Major
Mills, Major Sanderidge, Major
Holmes, Captains Bridgeford, Alfred,
Rivers, Fernandez, Walters, and
Chaplain Winthrop. The party was
given in the honor of Capt. E. Lock-
wood, the company commander of
Company 3D."
Music for the affair was furnished
by a section of the 372nd Infantry
Regiments band, and the program
was conducted and produced by Pvt
Durwood Brent of the Regimental
Special Service office.
The party was given by the men,
bers of the company and sponsored
By the N.C.Os and EN- of that or
ganization. A group picked by both
the N.C.O-s and EN-. planned the
party and quite bit of praise is
due them for doing such an excel
lent job
There was huge, beautifully dec
GRATED birthday cake with birthday
candles and everything on a cake
that goes to make birthday a
beautiful sight Beer was plentiful
and there was food of every de-
scription For the men who don't
drink beer there were sodas and just
plain water.
The thing that struck me most
was the fact that nothing was ra-
toned. There was plenty of music,
women, song and above all, food and
drink.
Captain Lockwood, we may be bit
late with our greetings, but we, the
staff of the Shield Section of the
Apache Sentinel, wish you happy
birthday and many more to come.
May all of your years be filled with
Joy and happiness and good fortune
that you so rightfully deserve
