European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - April 7, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Monday april 7, 1986 the stars and stripes Page 11 Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i never had a Good relationship with my father in Law. He was coarse and crude laughed too much and too loud told off color stories and was the exact opposite of my own . I always Felt Ujj uncomfortable in his presence but i never complained to any one including my husband. Now i m afraid 1 May have to say some thing because i Don t like the Way he plays with our 5-year-old daughter. He has Al ways tickled her which i read in your column was not a Good thing to do. I asked him to please Stop and he said it s  likes  a few months ago f noticed he was touching her in ways and places c did t approve of. He feels her Little breasts and says these Are going to get much  then he grabs her round Little Bottom and hollers i be got the Moon he puts his Mouth on these places and makes weird noises and bites her lightly. I finally told my husband i did t like what his father was doing to Alice and asked him to say something. His reply was you be been watching too much to. It s put your mind in the Gutter. Stop looking for  every time grandpa comes Over i watch him like a Hawk. He plays with our 10 year old son once in a while but he never touches him in the Way he does our Little girl. I am beside myself with worry. No initials or City please. No one must know we re having this problem in our family. Somewhere in the Midwest dear Midwest i m glad you Are watching your father in Law like a Hawk. Under no circumstances should the child be left alone with this Man but watching him is not enough. Since it is obvious that your husband will not take seriously what you say if s up to you to Tell that dirty old Man privately that if he does t keep his lecherous hands off your Little girl you Are going to make a major family stink then do it if you have to. And for heaven s Sake explain to Alice the difference Between Good touching an bad touching dear Ann Landers i just read the letter from Vancouver and i am boiling mad. He wants you to Tell your readers that cigarette Butts Are harm Ful for kids to eat. No kidding i d like to ask that joker where did the cigarette Butts come from in the first place nobody seems to be worried about the deadly second hand smoke that the kid is breathing 24 hours a Day if his parents Are smokers. For the life of me i can t under stand How people with Small children can keep on with that filthy habit. Don t they read the papers Don t they know they Are killing themselves this has been one of your major crusades for As Long As i can remember. It May be your greatest contribution to the Reading Public. Keep hammering away at those Lun Heads Ann. You Are saving lives. A fan in  mils thanks for those kind words. I intend to hang in there in spite of the readers who Tell me to get off the subject because i m Boring them to death. Better to die of bore Dom that lung cancer. It s a lot less  cheaper too. Dear Ann Landers can you track Down the source of one of the funniest lines i be Ever heard it is this men have much happier lives than women. They marry later and die  Felix in  Ariz the Man who said that was . Mencken. Incidentally very Little is known about his married life. His statement suggests i Twain t anything to brag about. Readers wishing to write to news America Syndi Cate columnist Landers May address their letters in care of the stars and stripes Apo 09211, . Forces letters Developer says Board games Are part of training in reference to the recent article on my Board games i would like to make the Fol lowing clarifications the quotes attributed to me in the third paragraph May taken out of context appear to belittle members of the air Force who. Work in management and support Ca reer Fields. Actually just the opposite i True. I was trying to explain Why former air Force chief of staff Gen. Lew Allen initiated the project Warrior program Sev eral years ago. His perception was that the air Force was Drifting away from a War fighting orientation that people in the management and support echelons were losing sight of the final product of their efforts fighting and winning any potential future conflict. Also people in All career Fields weren t taking advantage of the study of military history to learn from the experiences and mistakes of the past. Project Warrior attempts to rectify those deficiencies by using various re sources and Media to both regain our Mili tary identity and further the study of War fighting. These include books videotapes films guest speakers discussion groups Reading programs War games contests Etc. My two games were selected for air Force contract production by close simulations because Check six and Feba More graphically and realistically depicted present Day employment of air Power than other commercially available War games. War games have enjoyed widespread commercial popularity since the late 60s, but their use As a military training tool dates Back to the prussian Krie Spiel used to train Junior officers in the 1800s. The primary training advantage of Board game simulations lies in player involvement. Whereas books Are a passive learning Media the interactive nature of War games requires the player to make numerous decisions which will affect the outcome of the  the High number of decisions requires the player s full at Tention and concentration and is a Good exercise for the brain just As jogging exercises the body. Making a mistake in a Board game May result in the loss of a cardboard Chip in real War that mistake May Cost lives and equipment. This is Why a Basic collection of War games is available for checkout in every air Force Library in support of project  Board games will never replace the realistic training we get in flying aircraft sorties and simulator missions. While the games have proven some Worth in train ing aircrews they have enabled the  ple who Don t Fly the aircraft drop the bombs or fire the guns and missiles to see How the final results of their management and support will actually be employed i combat. It helps them understand How important their support is to get the Mission done the Impact of combat sorties lost to Supply maintenance sick injured Crews facilities Etc., and How essential the num Kamikaze Cucvas worry Motorist during a recent return trip from Frankfurt i was passed by two vehicles somewhere Between Heilbronn and Stuttgart. These two vehicles were military specifically new com Mercial Utility cargo vehicles Cucvas. Now i know you Are thinking what Pray Tell is so strange about that Well nothing unless you Are in the habit of driving a military vehicle in excess of 100 Mph. After these two kamikazes left my airspace i tried successfully i might add to catch and get a look at their bumper numbers in my privately owned vehicle. When i caught up to the rear vehicle my speedometer read 105 Mph and the Lead vehicle was nowhere insight. I got your vehicle number and i Hope you Are Reading this because you apparently have no respect for your life or the lives of others. You must have never been in an Accident before and if you do it will probably be your last. That is your decision but the other people you kill have no Choice in the matter. Stop now for them at least. Concerned Neu Ulm Germany editor s note col. William f. Ladd commander 14th military police brigade replies 6 i share the writer s concern and appreciate the Opportunity to comment on an important matter. It is the responsibility of each Soldier to report violations particularly those As cited by the writer which affect the safety and welfare of others. For a commander to take action documentation is required to establish proof. In this Case a sworn statement by the write would have enabled the commander to take appropriate disciplinary action. All operators of government or Usa eur plated vehicles should recognize that they Are driving a marked vehicle and that traffic violations May be reported by personnel other than military or civilian police and that action can be taken As a result. If Drivers recognize this fact and soldiers continue to report such incidents to unit commanders As they Are observed safety will be enhanced and our relationship with our German hosts improved.
