Dogs care in a writing to thank the Patrick Henry Village Phi veterinarian clinic for providing Quality care for All the animals in the area. My last assignment to an overseas location put a bad taste in my Mouth for military veterinarians but the vets at Phi have proven that All vets employed by the military Are not the same. My dogs Are a very important part of my family and the vets at Phi genuinely care about their welfare. You can Tell by the Way the dogs behave. Never has my older dog 11 years old been an easy patient but or. Clark in particular puts her at ease and relaxes her. When it comes to my dogs Only the Best is Good enough. I Trust the Phi vet clinic with its care. That should say it All. A tech sgt. C. L. Crawford Heidelberg German goods for Romania it is time again for our Community to Eull together to gather Relief goods for Romania. In april the Wurzburg military Community donated 32 boxes of goods that were transported to Romania by the apostolic Church of Wales. The pastors from Wales will come by Kitzinger in mid August to pick up More goods. At the end of this month 1 must Call them with an exact number of boxes As space will be limited. The churches in great Britain have been overwhelmed with donations of clothes. They ask us to try to donate other desperately needed things. A major item donated by our Community last time was used 220-Volt appliances a toasters hand mixers Heaters radios and hair dryers. These items Are not donated by British citizens because their plugs Are different from the romanian ones. Ours in Germany Are the same. Some of the items needed and which i believe will travel Well Are All Over the counter medicines bandages Sani tary pads health and Beauty aids watches Small calculators spices canned goods especially meat dry milk disposable diapers manual can openers rubber bands scissors,1 flashlights sugar baby food nylons batteries laundry detergent cooking Oil and nonperishable packaged foods. Items May be brought to Harvey Barracks Chapel Annex bldg. 141, 2nd floor Kitzinger co. 4/69 Armor Harvey or dropped off at Leighton Thrift shop Wurzburg during store hours. If these Are not convenient i will pick the goods up myself. 1 can be reached at 09321-24230. 1 am also looking for a reliable person who will be remaining in the Wurzburg area to take Over the organization of these Relief efforts. The pastors normally travel to Romania two to three times each year and Are willing to continue to Stop Here to pick up our contributions. Please remember that ail goods must i knew i Wasny to pregnant when i walked into your a crisis  i was appalled at the things you said to me a woman should know every option she has for any medical condition she May have. Its her life she has to live after any decision she makes. There Are thousands of women and children living in poverty because they had no Choice. They live on one meal a Day or go from soup Kitchen to soup Kitchen looking for food. So if you reverse Roe is.

When the  life party convinces me that life begins at Conception and either a. That All life is sacred and therefore killing it is immoral in which Case i starve or b. That life is human life and therefore it is immoral to kill it in which Case i denounce War and capital punishment then they will have a staunch convert. In the meantime until these ques letters to the editor therefore it truly amazes me that a recent writer would find fault with Secretary of state James a. Baker Illus statement that a a we be had two hot wars and one cold War in this Century All of which i think it is fair to say started in Eastern  to assert As this writer did that world War ii began with Germany a annexation of Austria in 1938 is just not True. And then to have the audacity to accuse Secretary Baker of misleading readers. Unbelievable. A Rick Kearney Wiesbaden Germany no a vacation in Turkey i am the wife of a deployed Security policeman from Pitburg. Today i was infuriated by a Man at the Exchange. He was talking to another Man just returned from saudi Arabia. He said he thought everyone was Home. I said a not  he asked me where my husband was and i said Turkey. He said a yeah on  i have never been so angry. I can to even remember half the things i said. I know after a few minutes he apologized but it was obvious he did no to mean it. There were Many people from Pitburg deployed to Turkey for operation provide Comfort. They went to the turkish iraqi Border to help save the lives of thousands of kurd driven from their Homes by the War. They were sent to build Camps to shelter these people to feed them to give them medical attention and to protect them. Our deployed troops worked 12-plus hours every Day to help Stop the dying. They Are working in temperatures Well into the 100s. They Are living in tents eating res dealing with blowing dust every single Day. I would like to see what kind of vacation he thought it would be if he had been sent there if he had seen the men women and children crying by the thousands every Day if he had to watch out for rebel bullets in the Middle of the night. The men and women of operation provide Comfort were Given an enormous task. They met this task and overcame All the challenges in a fraction of the time that was scheduled for this operation. To All of you who served in operation provide Comfort my husband and the other members of 36th Security police so include you have every right to be proud. God bless you All. No one has the right to belittle the work of the troops who served in operation provide Comfort by calling the deployment to Turkey a  a Cheryl Burton Pitburg a Germany tons Are resolved beyond reasonable reach me by july 31 in order hat ample doubt then no government should steal space be allocated on the bus. C a Debbie Higdon Kitzinger German crisis renter criticized in 1 read the recent  life letter which the writer asked me to see a pregnancy crisis Center if in a pregnant and confused. Well i have been to one of your centers and i was not impressed. You called me a Quot sinner Quot for having premarital sex. That made me feel better 1 was offered a a contract with god so i could regain my virginity. I did no to know that was medically possible. I was then bombarded with your cheap scare tactics. Yes when i left i Felt guilty for having even thought of  pals a woman s right to form opinions on these Tough questions and make an individual decision. In the Shadow of uncertainty enacting legislation that steals an individual s right to make a decision seems in american. Nevertheless the three questions above plague me and i await my conversion. Or. Forrest Thompson Oberlohr Germany lesson in history l know of not one reputable historian who would dispute the assertion that world War ii started on sept. 1, 1939, when nazi Germany invaded Poland and that the spark that touched off world War i was indeed the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand at Sarajevo now in Yugoslavia.
