particularly to the army wives in the our error in judgment has let them in for unjust Cri our face is and we admit it the More than 300 letters received in answer to Andrews ranging from a suggestion that she and who some months ago in b bag called privates get to the agreement of 41 men that she should be separated should be put As far out in left Field As All indicate that the idea was not a
