The Mojave Desert is minus ne dream boat (a fleet in the desert yet) now that PFC Eli Allen has returned to the fold and is stationed once again in San Diego. Such a smile the boy has… fairly warms the old heart.
Our photo-happy Arnie Doren clicks away all his spare hours taking candid camera shots of all and sundry, at the USO dances at Temple Center on Wednesday nights. ‘Tis a blow to one’s ego, indeed, indeed, viewing the finished product enlarged usually to an 8 x 10 sized horror. … Think not for one moment that the fault lies with the workmanship of our Arnie. Heavens to Betsy, no… the photography is excellent. It’s just that those candids are so candid!
The Boots from the Naval Training Center are beginning to pour into the USO, and it can be safely said we have out-Kippled Rudyard himself, 5 to 1 … You know, Boots, Boots, marching up and down and stuff. Welcome Boots, wlcome to our side.
