a lot and build yourself a church.

Pfc.’s Witte, Daniels, and Guido
have been very busy the last few
days erecting a small barrier of
rocks around the front of the Sig
nal Office. And the famous cros
sed flags of the Signal Corps set
it off. Mrs. Vera Bevan will prob
ably be opening a photo lab in a
few weeks. She has purchased a
Speed Graphic camera, and is very
proud of it. Mrs. Bevan is one of
our switchboard operators, prob
ably better known to everyone as
Bev.
A few of us in QM did manage
to load a truck a while back with
a few eager-beavers to go on a nice
cozy wet, cold trip to Jantzen’s
mining camp. It was all an urge
for adventure and some “home
cooked food.” A cabin was found
containing a stove so it was really
a lot of fun despite a cold rain.
Other activities included hikes
with Duplesis and Bulvt, and out
ings with “the boys,” Pizzerello,
Cook, Robinson, Sankoop, Hags
trom, and Sonne.
Mr. Jonish, the Ordnance civil- ;
ian shop foreman, left us last week
to assume a new position in the j
Engineer Cat shop. The Ordnance :
personnel were all sorry to see
him leave and wish him the best of ;
luck in his new job. T/5 Raymond
Arvila and T/5 Norval Gibson are i
enjoyilng a 10 day furlough here ,
in Nome. Between Ray’s cooking
and Gibbie’s housekeeping it nust
be a lot of fun.
The Det. 10th Rescue has the
painting bug now. Yes sir, we
have started to paint the Orderly
Room and the enlisted men's quar
ters. A few of the fellows yester
day painted the butt and ash cans.
You know, yellow paint looks
nice. In case you people don’t
know, the Squadron colors are
yellow and black. Some one ask
S/Sgt Moore and Sgt. Ramsay
where they go each night about
10 o’clock.
ACS in town was inoperative tor i
ACE in town was inoperative for J
some technical reason. Out main
maintenance man, Sgt. O’Borney
was doing his share of KP, thus
our circuit is still out and the tel
etype operators have to run the
messages to town. Yes, soldier
first, technician second. Two of
our GCA men, Pfc. Hubert and
Pfc. Hoffman, are proud to say
that they are the first men in the
Alaskan Department to add the
first modification to the GCA unit,
that is stationed at this field.
Hq. Det. has a member that is
quite a pool shark. He is Pfc.
King. He spends most of his spare
time in the Service Club playing
nine ball or showing some of his
trick shots. T/3 Sharp, T/Sgt. Con
nor, and S/Sgt. Breschak got a 10
day extension on their leave. They
must be having a fine vacation at
Pilgrim Springs. Gordon Dune has
thrown away his Pfc. stripe and is
sporting the latest style in the line
of corporal stripes.
All members of the 761st MP

nice catches of fish this week
