European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - August 14, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Ann Landers thursday August 14,1986 the stars and stripes Page 11 letters dear Ann Landers last night 1 treated some friends to dinner in a Fine Reslau Rani. The food was delicious but the portions were too generous. At the conclusion of he meal i asked our waitress for a Doggie bag for the leftovers. There were Tome lobster tails two half portions of lobster Newburg and an order of Spaghetti. A bus boy brought the leftovers in a bag wrapped in tin foil. The next afternoon 1 opened the bag thinking we would have a Nice lunch. What i found was a few tired shrimp and some willed lettuce. I called the restaurant and old the manager about it he replied the bus boy must have Given you someone else s bag by mis take. So  do you think he treated us right . In , Dewa  rally Mart restaurant manager would but invited Joo tack for lunch on the Home. Thl Man was. Just Plain dumb. Dear Ann Landers la the Hartford courant recently you ran a letter from a woman whose husband stopped physically abusing her. They went to an organization called spouse abuse and were both so grateful. There was one statement in her letter that stood out like a Neon sign. It wot his i was so furious if had had a gun i would have shot  with All the advice you dispense in your column the most important should be to Stop letting Ordinary Citi Zens own handguns. The National Rifle association has one of the most powerful lobbies in Washington. Why in t a National poll taken of the citizenry to find out if the majority of people want the Man on the Street to be Able to buy a Tun with no questions asked a headline Story in the courant was about a father who idol his three children Ages 9, 4 and 3, and then kilted himself. Gun slayings Are so frequent it in t even front Page news anymore. If saved in Florida by her own admission had had a gun the and her husband would never have made it to the organization called spouse abuse. Please have the courage to address this problem. .

Defi Cit defense spending cuts and the Gramm Rudman Bill 1 just can t believe what i recently Iraq cd. My lax Dollar is going on dishwashers that s right dishwasher now i can understand the military has a certain responsibility to provide some household items for the military families but a dishwasher As far i am concerned it is purely and simply a luxury item. My grandmother raised a family of nine and my Mother a family of four without one very nicely and yet military couples without even one child can be issued a dishwasher. Granted such a thing did t exist for grandmother but i m sure she never missed in even if she could have afforded one. This May sound As if i be something against those who own or want a dishwasher. That s not True. Every one has their priorities in life and who am i to criticize however. I am against the fact that the . Army is buying and furnishing dishwashers to military families on Post this ii a totally unnecessary expenditure. It not Only costs to buy them it costs to deliver them and install them and it costs More for electricity you know the thing everyone talks about saving i can guarantee even though i Don t like it much it never Hurt me to spend 1 if minutes washing Dii Hei. Besides it gels my hands cleaner than using lava. If the army has enough Money to spend on dishwashers which i doubt that s All Well and Fine. But i would much rather  that Money go forc Osl of living allowances or for an increase in our base pay then maybe i could afford one myself. Most beneficial would be to have that Money go into our medical and dental facilities or to acs for those who might have a new dishwasher in their Kitchen but no food on their shelves. Staff sgt.

He corrects Story on Nijm Egen March i would Tike to respond to the recent article about the 609th tac control so participation in the Nijmie Gen March. We appreciate the coverage however there were some errors in the Story. The article led the Reader to believe that we had very Little support from our Squadron or the Hess Isch old Undorf As Community. On the contrary we had tremendous material and moral support from the com Manders of the 609lh tac control so 629lh tac control bight and the 600th combat support so we were enthusiastically provided tents cols vehicles Gas cooking utensils permissive temporary duly orders and much More. The article was Correct about our financial support from the various organizations except there was no prodding involved. We simply asked for donations and the organizations eagerly responded. The 609th tac control so and the 629 tac control right Are tactical radar units that frequently deploy tothe Field. Our Mission requires us to maintain lop physical conditioning and the Nijm Egen March ii an excellent Means to do this. We our commanders and our air Force Community feel the March adds to Esprit de corps and is directly in line with project War rior. The Hess Isch Oldendorf As Community has full supported our trips to Nijm Egen for three consecutive years and i am lure the support will continue for future marches. Cant. Henry w.
