tellers the Community of americans living in Turkey has Learned to accept the fact that the Little things in life can be so for we literally celebrated when we were not forced to buy the cholesterol loaded filled milk skimmed milk with vegetable Oil finally we were offered a Choice when the German uht milk Cartons were brought when the Deli fresh european beef was offered to us instead of the some times previously thawed we again cel this past december we celebrated the holidays a few weeks when the commissary offered the Community of a fantastic selection of european the spirits of the people shopping in the commissary were lifted to Heights never be fore reached when that delicious fresh cheese it was the talk of the Community and when we were told that the cheese would be ordered on a regular basis we were so our spirits have been Damp ened by the recent news that the european cheese will not be ordered again and that Kraft instead will increase its we were told that we should buy Amer As Long As we have a american products win always be Kraft products will continue to be Pur chased mainly because there Are no substitutes for cheese such As Ameri Monterey longhorn and to be on an equal status with the Ameri can communities in Bel would be quite they have in their commissaries incredible selections of european meats and Sau along with american for our the selections of 10 to 12 kinds of european cheeses we tasted in de Cember would certainly be sufficient for the size of the american communities in tur the members of the will Endeavor in every Way to Speed the return

commissary service of he european Region in the House armed services committee has directed the services to purge their offshore acquired Osa Stockage list of All items competing with similar exceptions were Short shelf life products like bread and Dairy expansion of Osa items from one country to another was also prohibited so As not to create a Market outside the country of exceptions to this Rule were bottled uht fresh beef and a few other items that were either impractical to procure from the states or unattainable in other a shipment of assorted and French cheeses was inadvertently delivered to your commissary in violation to our agreement with the choosing not to place the entire Osa program in weve halted All further ship ments until the has alters its in the weve expanded the Kraft line to include their gourmet their Almond Swiss soft sem soft Torsberg and string Mozzarella Are particularly pleas although there not produced in eur there every bit As no and palatable As their european in response to the above reply we contacted Les com Mittee on armed House of who answers readers sound off on spy Case i think its Only fair that those accused in the Walker spy ring be Given a True russian spy expenses paid by the Money they received for All they have done to injure our Munib Germany Wake up America whats happening do we really want to throw in the dump it to hell with our our our our hard fought our moral our dedications do we actually want to destroy the sound principles of discipline which have made our history All the Way Back to the declaration of Independence i Hope but recent events make one it is revolting and sickening to read or hear the selfish interests Are the thing of the a family of accused spies men who Drew pay from your tax saluted our pledged allegiance to god and our country time and time but at the same allegedly sold our secrets for greed and contributed to lessening leadership in the free then there is the student who refused to stand with respect for her country during a pledge of allegiance ceremony who has been awarded an apology from the superintendent of schools As though her rejection of a traditional sign of Honor to our country is a wrongful i remember when nearly every american boy wanted to be a better a g now we hear of an Fri agent who Al Edgely sold us Down the River so that he could allegedly

Community should soon begin seeing euro Pean cheeses in their As will other commissaries on your Side of the let me explain what in 1982 this committee looked at the commissaries in Europe and discovered they were buying Many foreign items that were identical to american the Treasury spends More than million a year to ship american foods to commissaries it has Long been the policy of this committee that the commissaries should not buy foreign items that duplicate american foods the taxpayer is pay ing to ship the 1982 study for that the commissaries in Europe were carrying 39 varieties of 13 of which were identical to american products being shipped to these 13 foreign cheeses were the remaining 26 were due to a the air Force commissary service thought those 26 foreign cheeses could Only be sold in Side As a result of Scharffs i have now made Clear that these cheeses May be sold in All commissaries on your Side of the one final note though some May Sug Gest it is Mere provincial
