European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - May 20, 1987, Darmstadt, Hesse Arm landed wednesday May 20, 1987 the stars and stripes Page 11 letters dear Ann Landers i believe you missed an Opportunity to educate people when you responded to worried in Montana both the woman and her husband assumed that their Ion s Friend Randy is Gay simply because he is somewhat Etemi Nate in manner. Effeminate mannerism prove nothing. By the same Token there Are thousands of Gay men who appear to be strongly masculine. These men drive trucks they Ace Taw enforcement officers Dock worker and yes even Wall Street Bankers. The idiotic narrow minded thinking exemplified a i Montana has plagued the Gay Community for years. The picture of he stereotypical Gay Lisp Limp wrist and so Forth is what the straight Community perceives to be proof of homosexuality. What pure unadulterated Hogwash please Tell your readers not to be so Quick to hang labels straight or Gay on anyone simply Bomse a person appears to be one Way or the other. They could be wrong. . In Westport Conn. Dear wet poit. Think Yon by provocative letter t Cut vouch for the Validity of your statement based on the null i ban received Over he Yean.

Ii was a terrific Shock to learn otherwise wag devastated How sad. Dear Ann Landers the thing i be Learned front your column a while Back a Reader suggested applying half of it freshly Cut onion on a Bee or Wasp sting. I tried it when 1 was stung by a Wasp recently and the pain disappeared almost instantly. 1 kept the onion on the bite for sever Al minutes and uie swelling went Down completely and Dow i would like to return the favor by Sug Gesting a Way to gel Quick Relief from bums White Canning recently i spilled boiling water on my Bare feet and toes t took a Butcher knife and whacked off three Large stems of the Ajoc yera Piant in my Tilchen peeled them Down and applied the moisture from the Plant to the burned areas i kept this up for about 15 minutes. The pain stopped within a few minutes and there was no blistering no swelling and no discoloration the sooner you get to the Burn the better. Also in will not work if medication la applied first. Janet w., Canoga Park Calif. Dear Janet thanks for the up. If a great for those who have Aloe ten Palau in Ribeir kitchens but for those who Don to Cou water pacts not ice show be applied at once and if pm Don t have a tube of the topical local docs Tiseth Blesin a crate in your Kitchen drawer folks gel one front Roar in Eggitt today you la be glad you did dear Ann Landers j would like la comment on the letter from a Reader who found the reminiscing of old folks tiresome t Laved your reply but have a suggestion that will make these journeys into the past invaluable. When they get going on the old stories turn on the tape recorder and you will have t priceless piece of history to pass on to your children and grandchildren. Tennessee celebrated Homecoming 86" list year and one of the projects was to led out older folks an tape interviews. Someone said when old people die it i like a Library burning Down Lydia w., South Fulton Tenn. Readers object to dependent drug testing i would like to respond to a recent letter readers urge drug tests for those on he there have been plenty of times i be wanted to respond to a letter in this column but none have sent me off Lik this one. First of All i d like to text the Good sergeants that if they arc planning to go into the welfare Reform Busi Ness they need to do a Little Homework. Their idea Maywell Cost taxpayers More Money than it saves. They might also want to give a thought to All the innocent children who would go without food under this , 1 know let s put them in Foster Homes. How much do you think that win Cost the problem lies More within the system than those who abuse it. Second let me Tell you i m sick of people who Wear a rank calling us dependents i resent the fact that i have been lumped in with a group who receives hand outs at government expense. Let me Tell you one thing nobody hands me anything. My husband works Long and hard for that paycheck 1 work just As hard lit supporting him mentally physically and emotional in now add three children to supervise educate enter Tain and emotionally support. Schedules to keep and budget to meet. Did you say you were sergeants docs my Job sound familiar yet i m sure if the government asked us the family members to submit to drug testing would All be there Wilb nothing to hide. Just Don l you forge Aren t one of your troops. Don t Start dumping us int degrading categories and think you re Gonna get away with it yes service members with dependents receive a bit More cola and bad. Do you think maybe Etc reason is because the army believes 1 the dependent can take better care of their go than they can for be Money a Content Soldier is a Good Soldier. Proudly serving he array Kim Cierley Neo Ira Germany this idler is in response to the two sergeants who think military dependents should be tested for drug Uselto determine whether the sponsor would be eligible for separate rations and bad or government Quarter. That s one of the most ridiculous ideas i be overheard of. Everyone knows that separate rations Are for the Soldier s food not for the dependents. Their food comes out of the Soldier s base pay. As for bad almost any Soldier who has Ever rented to apartment can Tell you that bad and via or of a do no always cover the Cost of rent and utilities especially for the lower ranking soldiers. Therefore the rest comes out of the Soldier s base pay. Needless to say if a military dependent is using drugs the Money is not coming out of separate rations Ano bad but out of the sponsor s base pay or maybe even the dependent s pay. I guess your nest suggestion will be hat if a dependent is found using drugs his or her sponsor will not be eligible to receive his or her base pay. real i m against drug abuse As much As the next person but to take Money away from a Soldier because one of his or her dependents uses drugs is the user not the sponsor. Sue Botev Korn Welhelm Germany letter details plight of Naf local hires these stories on the declining Dollar and How the Young service member can t make payments on that new Bow Are becoming rather trite. Ii really Breaks my heart. If Only they knew there is Only one group of workers truly suffering and thai is those of us on the non appropriated fund Naf payroll local hire. The majority of us work in the services divisions which Cater to the recreation and support needs of the Soldier. Your articles Only mentioned the Naf employees once which i take to mean re not so valuable work Force. But to reiterate How pitiful our situation is Over Here the majority of us i h Between two and 10 years of service draw an average $750 monthly. We receive no separate a ions no cola no housing Al Lowance and no free medical care. We Haven t had a pay raise in More than two years and chances of promotion Are slim to nil at Best. I fail to see How military people can not survive when in most cases they draw double our pay after the benefits Are added. To continue on the plight of Naf employees must work beside dependents who draw 25 percent to so percent More than do for doing tie same Job. Equal pay work does t apply Over Here. Of having Scricc Mcthers spouses get preferential treatment that can be understood. But also have their full grown children reaping these same Ben fits. Know of individuals who have served combat duty in Korea and Vietnam humbler into accepting Naf jobs at 15 an hour and working betide 18 and 19-Ycar-Olds, whose Only service to their country is to have the Good Fortune of being labelled dependent on their id cards starting at 56,49 an hour. If thew youngsters wish to remain overseas after age 18 they should have to compete with the rest of us for jobs. So please services Erners and is civilians quit complaining and realize just How Good you have it. I Naf workers making poverty wages can survive anyone can.
