Community regarding Joseph Owen s recent article on the 1928 trans allanic flight of Hermann Kohl t thought he might be interested to know that in my Hometown of Massapequa ask Long Island. N.y., there Are three is reels running in scour race South to North Fitzmaur Ricc Koehl and von Hunfeld von Huenfeld being my family s Home address for the last 27 years. A few blocks away is a Large tract of land on which the local elementary and Junior High schools stand. According to Hometown sources that land tract was an Airfield in the 1920s and 30s. Named Fitzmaurice Fly ing Field. Everyone in own knew who the next Street North of von Hun fold was named for Lindbergh but few if any in the neighbourhood knew anything about the other three names who they were or what they did. Although the German spelling of the names in the article is rot the same As in tit of the Street signs at Home i have no doubt that the names Are one and the same. I m sure fran Kohl would be pleased to know that the names of her husband and his two companions arc enshrined on three streets in new York along with that of Lucky Michael Gallagher Bonn Carlucci gets credit for go pay raise places to make cuts. Or. Weinberger s arrogant leadership certainly did not put any Money in our pockets. This year s 2-percent pay increase drives my Point the House armed services military personnel and compensation subcommittee recently approved a 4 percent pay increase called for a 7 percent increase in quarters allowance and repealed further cuts in officer strength Over the Neil two years. Although their actions do not make these gains final they Are significant to the Pentagon. They symbolize a greater degree of support for military personnel in Congress than we have seen in quite some time. I think this new found support is directly linked to the leadership of Secretary Frank Cartucci. He has made it Clear that personnel Are at the top of his list in priority. Unlike his predecessor he has demonstrated his willingness to show Congress the Best Home. Secretary Carlucci i willingness to place people above weapons systems Cost him his spoiled brat Navy Secretary. But who needs a subordinate Leader who supports you Only when he agrees with you Secretary Carlucci is certainly capable of leading the department of defense in these times of scarce re sources. 1 commend him capt.
