Nothing Navy
About The Journal

There is nothing about The
Journal or Leader personnel
that smacks of the U. S. Navy.
At least that seems to be the
consensus of opinion among our
readers last week when we Slip
ped through a Danish hospital"
ship for a U.S.S. Destroyer.
The paper carried a story about
1t. Wiseman of GAINESVILLE and
the ship which was named in his
memory.
But instead of receiving the
destroyer cut from the Zanes-
vile Publishing company, we
received the Danish hospital cut
instead and it went through
without being detected.
A check of this papers military
forces reveals that all served
with the U. S. Army or Air
Corps. Need we say more?
