European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - June 14, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Saturday june 14. 1986 the stars and stripes Arin Landers Page 11 dear Ann Landers i am perplexed by n problem that i have run across three times in the last few i ars secretive husbands. In one Case an older Cousin s Hus band died and the woman had no idea of the state of their finances. He always provided her with plenty of household and pocket Money but became apoplectic when asked about financial mailers even after he became terminally ill. When he died his widow was unable to find any assets. In the second Case a successful physician is unwilling to share information about the family finances. Mis wife my sister has no inkling of their financial status. He has a highly successful practice is chief of staff of the Community Hospital and a Fillar of the medical Community but totally Secre Tive about financial matters. They hive recently reconciled after nearly breaking up Over this situation. My sister is a successful professional per son in her own right and has had to run the household with her own funds not paying much attention to the Lack of information until recently when it become a Bone of Contention. The third example is a sister in Law. Her husband died suddenly last december. She was unable to find any resources except a Small Slock account and an apartment in London which was in both names. He never spoke of business matters even though they appeared to have a solid marriage. What do you have to say about such be Havior How can a women prot Cal herself against a Man who is secretive perplexed in the West dear pent it b Bird to imagine a to nuts bring so in awhirl and passive about family finances a this Day and age. Aay with who reads his and does nol a Xor what Sac eat count on if her husband Dies More her Jad most of Ibern trill should open the subject before another Day fan Fay. If her husband refuses to talk about in she should Tell my he own her that Csider Atio and if be be nuts la bring  she will be forced la see a lawyer. Tat wot goes for men whose wives control the purse strings. They too a right la know what goes on. Dear Ann Landers today i read another of those Sappy essays in your column i mean the drivel that tells mothers someday the kids will be grown up and gone and the noise and mess will Stop and boy will they be lonely part of the menage is Good but another part Tell them that they should complain if they arc overworked overloaded and dumped an because it s All part of motherhood. Women already feel guilty for everything that happens. Such sentimental Slop Only reinforce the message Juil do it Honey did Don t complain . In Denver dear Deo a lot of own re going to rite you Faar car for your stand and rightfully of. Yon nuke a great Deal of mat. Army says it s trying to improve mechanics training where docs the bulk of the military Bud permanent unit i knew Little More about a and unit training. Sine the curricula o get go How is in spent that s an easy question they re building missiles and tanks and new military vehicles with it. Why Are they doing that because our old equipment is obsolete i Don t think so. This is merely an opinion i would Tike to snare with More people than can be found in my unit s motor Pool. I Don t know much about missiles and tanks but i would like to think that i am fairly knowledgeable of the  s Light wheeled vehicle. So Why is it that a 1978 Dodge pickup truck has had three different engines four different transmissions and 14.000 Worth of other parts replaced on in since its Dale of manufacture in 1his track a so called Lemon did he  get ripped of by a bureaucratic used car Salesman t Don t think so. I am Noi one to cite statistics but i la bet most people who know anything about their unit s motor Pool will agree that the  wastes billions of dollars on class in repair parti and a serious Lack of training is where in All begins. Sin years ago 1 weal through a hurry up. Nine week course on the  i Light wheeled be Hecla. When i entered my first permanent 2 Tun truck than i knew before i entered the . Needless to Sny 1 ended up tearing up More than i fined. They Tell you in Ait that your supervisor will teach you what you did t learn Here. But what about that pour Guy who is sup posed to be teaching you Uhal he does t even know he s stuck in an office with paper coming out of his cars. So when do we have Lime for training of somewhere Between 12 Midnight and 3 a.m.?" wrong answer. The Lime for train ing in before that Soldier Ever gels in his first assignment. The training 1 received in Ait did t even begin to scratch the or face of what t needed to know and that to me is totally senseless. In is time for All of us 10 open our c is and realize that training cannot take Back scat o gelling that old Dicicc and half off deadline. Set. John b. Moore or. Uni him Germany editor s note col.

Next my family and f stopped by the Bost Alsee recently to enjoy Lite Beautiful Day and to watch the wind surfers. What caught my attention was a few Gas having a Good time with their families and a few of them playing softball catch. Super they like me and my family were playing by the German rules having a great quiet Lime. The above equals the spirit of friends guests and All around Good neighbors. Now for the bad and ugly. My attention was also caught by another group of Gas with their ban not Blar ing but loud. Nuts a  spoiled afternoon intruding an nature and the German rules now come four of the most obnoxious bad and a Tiri i have had the unfortunate experience to Tec these Gas were perfect example incl ban was blaring so loud that i and the rest of the Lake s populace could Bearil from More than hair mile away. And when this pitiful foursome approached i could not believe their Lan Guage. Every noun had a variation of a four letter word adjective attached to it. It was absolutely the most disgraceful display of vulgarity i have expert Enid which includes my College Days of swearing to nests. Well the cos with the loud Sot asked thu new foursome to turn Down the noise. Guru what no can do because i m four letter adjective  yes the first group had a taste of their own Medicine need less to say we could not hear their Bon any More for they turned in Down. However tic noise re mined As they continued their ugly journey around the Lake. As you can Sec several goods were overshadowed by the bad and1 ask All commanders and first sergeants to visit the local lakes and observe their troops. I Hope they see the goods and do not experience the bad and ugly. I also ask my fellow Gas to police the bad and Uglis. Lei s All get our act to gather. In Rome Germany do As the romans germans do.
